LDS History
Ogden was incorporated as a city in 1851, three years after it was settled. This made it the third incorporated city west of the Missouri River, the first two being San Francisco and Salt Lake City. It was a typical Mormon settled western community of homes and businesses centrally located with farms surrounding the outlying areas. In many respects, pioneer life in Ogden Valley closely resembled that of other communities in early Utah. Everyday life revolved around the agricultural cycle and the Church, and a sense of community and cooperation pervaded most activities.
