When I called Esther Hacking Kimber one day to wish her a happy birthday, she told me about this book she had purchased many years ago with the history of our ancestors' home. I decided to see if it was available from the Salt Lake Family History Library and this is what I found. I am sharing this resource with you to help in our research. However, there are errors so please confirm with other records. Ron Cook has been working on a book about the Cedar Fort Cemetery that has more accurate information about the individuals buried there and Paul Henke is creating a database with the obituaries for those buried in this cemetery.
