 Historical The area that was to become Salt Lake County was settled in 1847 when Mormon Pioneers of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, fleeing persecution in the East, arrived in the Salt Lake Valley after traveling through Emigration Canyon. Brigham Young, their leader, declared "This is the right place" after seeing the valley, which was at the time arid, dry, and unpromising. However, they soon developed a flourishing, self-sufficient city, Great Salt Lake City, through extensive irrigation techniques. Thousands of Latter-day Saints from around the world followed in the next several decades. The county was officially formed on January 31, 1850, with just over 11,000 residents recorded.

Bible Records
The term "Bible records" refers to the practice of keeping family dates and events in a family Bible. This was a common practice in many European countries and carried over to America. Many of these family Bible records are still in existence and preserved by the descendants of the immigrants. In some cases these family Bibles have found their way into libraries and other repositories. For an explanation of how to find Bible records and for helpful links see Utah Bible Records. See also United States Bible Records.

Land and Property Records
Online Land Indexes and Records Land records (especially deeds) often give the name of a spouse, heir, other relatives, or other clues for further research. They often have other clues for further research, such as witnesses or the other parties who may be relatives or in-laws. See Utah Land and Property for more. One example listing ownership is: Utah is a federal land grant state. Salt Lake County was the first one to exist in Utah and is the largest. Land was, at first, distributed as allotments. A settler could request a certain amount of property and then the land was distributed by lottery. There were town lots, farms of five acres, and further away from the center of town, farms of ten acres. “For the first 22 years after settlement, land ownership was based on Utah territorial land policies. The Utah Territorial Assembly governed land ownership in Utah and established methods of surveying and acquiring title. These practices and the documents they created were recognized in Utah Territory, but did not provide Utah settlers with federally recognized legal title to land. Reconciliation between the territorial and federal land distribution systems required Congressional legislation to establish a land office in Salt Lake City, integrate Utah Territory into the national land system, and provide relief to the inhabitants of cities and towns on the public domain. The federal government opened a land office in Salt Lake City on March 9, 1869.”(Source: Ronda Frazier, Probate Court Land Claim Record Books, 1871-1894, Salt Lake County Records Management &amp; Archives Series #PC-010, pg.3.) A great way to learn about land records is to search for articles in the Utah Historical Quarterly Online. An example would be the following article: Lawrence L. Linford, “Establishing and Maintaining Land Ownership in Utah Prior to 1869,” Utah Historical Society Quarterly 42 no. 2 (Spring 1974):142. Location of Land Records
 * County Recorder's Office: check deeds, file mining claims, get assistance in finding ownership of a particular property, and obtain copies of county plat maps. This office has county plat records dating back to 1878, prior records having been destroyed in a fire.
 * Morgan, Nicholas G. Pioneer Map: Great Salt Lake City, Great Basin, North America. N.p.: 1851?. (FamilySearch Library .) This map includes historical data and index to names of original owners and their locations by lot or lots and blocks. The index to this map consists of names of major land owners in various Salt Lake City wards of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Around 60% of homesteads were not proved up - be sure to check the Cancelled, Rejected, and Relinquished Land Entry Files at National Archives.

 Church History Library 
 * Original allotment records: possibly non-extant. The Church History Library has more information on the original land lottery held in 1847-1850 and an in house index.

 Salt Lake County Archives
 * Land Title Cases: Salt Lake County Archives has Land Claim Record Books on Microfilm and Land Title Certificate Files in boxes, the average file is 7 pages, an alphabetical index to this collection is found online at their site: Link. These records are from The Probate Court, 1851-1895.
 * They also have surveyor records, tax records, even aerial photos of property. These were used to help straighten the surveying of property from historical times. There are also accessor tax records that often contain photos of buildings on a property.

 Salt Lake County Recorder's Office The Recorder's Office has worked diligently to keep all the records at the Recorder’s office. At one time, parts of their collection had been sent to the State Archives and have now been returned. The Recorder’s Office has all records back to 1950 online, all plat maps available digitally, and are continuously working to digitize the rest of their 8,000,000 records. Their goal is to have anyone from anywhere, with an account, be able to trace land titles. The account is quite pricey, but can be accessed in the Recorders office for free. There are training sessions on Tuesdays that last 1 ½ - 2 hours but only available for account holders. Seating is limited. The FamilySearch Library has only a small portion of their collection on microfilm. They have deed books from 1855-1901 and a few plat maps. Unfortunately, there are only grantor/grantee indexes for the first two books and the film is a very poor quality. To access the rest of the indices it is necessary to visit the Recorder’s office. There are two areas to search: the abstract books in the main office and all the other records are located in the vault and can be viewed upon request. City Directories: can be found at the FamilySearch Library, Church History Library, Utah State Archives, University of Utah, and Brigham Young University, etc. There are a few early directories available on Internet Archive.
 * County Deeds from 1855-current, mining records, plat maps, federal tax liens, DD 214 military discharge records, water tax, lien and leases, and mortgages, some bounty land grants for military services, inheritance taxes: are located at the Salt Lake County Recorder’s Office Vault. Working plat maps kept until the late 1980’s are restricted. They can be viewed if the staff retrieve them, copies are not allowed. The DD 214’s are restricted because they contain social security numbers. All other records are open for viewing.
 * Granter/Grantee Indexes There are granter/grantee indexes from 1855-1862; 1888-1975. Books C-2G indexes do not exist. The numbers on the books are alphabetical. The first book is A, then B – Z. Then it starts all over again 2A-2Z through 5A-5Z. These books cover 1855-1901. Books A &amp; B have the granter/grantee index in the front. I contacted Salt Lake County Archives, Utah State Archives, and talked with staff in the Recorder’s Office. No one knows what happened to these indices.
 * Abstract Books The red abstract books are a sort of granter/grantee index organized under the subdivision name and coordinates. One can trace the title of a property this way. Their computer system is not designed for alphabetical name searches. On the computer one must look up the address or coordinates of the property to be searched and it will state what abstract book to start in. These are very tiny print copy books of the real abstract books located in the vault. Luckily there are magnifying glasses on the counter one can use to see the tiny handwriting. The books contain the land transactions for specific subdivisions starting at the creation of the subdivision until 1981. These books also contain tax sales and mortgage information.
 * Original Plat Maps These have been digitized and can be purchased.

 Mandatory Address Changes It is very important to know that street address changes were made officially in the state in 1972. Street addresses, particularly on the south and north sides of Main Street were greatly affected. This is necessary to be able to recognize or locate any property before 1972. Two references are helpful in understanding the changes: a website article entitled Salt Lake City and County Street Names and Numbers and a pamphlet called Salt Lake City and County Streets and Their Numbers. All streets historically, to the west, were off by one number, for example, 400 West became 500 West. See Don Strack, “Salt Lake City and County Street Names and Numbers,” Utahrails.net and Richard R. Lyman, Salt Lake City And County Streets And Their Numbers (Salt Lake City, Utah: Wilson’s Book Store, 1951); Utah State History Utah State Archives Research Room, PAM 2317, Salt Lake City.
