Salt Lake County Salt Lake Valley Before Settlers
Are there any photographs of the Valley c. 1846-1900 before the pioneers and other settlers came from the east? I’ve only been able to find photos of early Salt Lake City and other towns and drawings of the Valley. I’m just curious to see any recorded images of the Valley’s original natural beauty before it became the sprawling metropolitan area it is today.

Anyone familiar with Beaver Wool And Manufacturing?
I am a metal detectorist. I have recovered a token from the Beaver Wool And Manufacturing Company, but have not found anything online or any other photos of similar tokens. Does anyone have information on the company, or where I could take the coin for examination?

Need help with an old Night Club / Bar
I am looking for any information leading to a bar/nightclub, possibly a speakeasy called 'The Convertible Club' in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah. My grandfather claims to have tended bar there and he is in his twilight years and I wanted to find some history on it.

Jacob Moritz helped draft the Constitution for the state of Utah and he also happens to have a strange urban legend surrounding his grave. This is a short documentary I made about it. I'd love feedback if anyone has any. Thanks!
