Product Description
Weber County was opne of the six original countys established in the territory of Utah in 1850, and for a time it bordered California and the Oregon territory. Weber County's importance was underlined with the arrival of the transcontinental railroad in 1869 and subsequent establishment as Ogden as a rail center. Weber county became a melting pot. This growth demanded increased development of water resources, efforts to plan and stabilize education, and ongoing community efforts to preserve the land and the culture of the past while facing the challenge of the future.
