Froiseth's 1871

     In the waning weeks of the "Utah Drawn" exhibit at the Utah state capitol, my wife was kind enough to go take some cell phone shots of the rare, private collection, maps that are on display.  Of particular interest is the 1871 Froiseth map of Utah, authorized by the territorial legislature.  This is the oldest know (to me) map listing Honeyville.

This map became the basis for many maps that were published very the following decade.  I wish I could get my hands on a good quality digital image, but the ones held by public universities are too fragile to scan.

Honeyville is near the center of this photograph of the 1871 Froiseth Map of Utah

There it is.  Honeyville was listed as a city on maps in 1871, seen on train time tables in 1872, and referenced in journals as Honeyville about the same time.
