UTAH was founded in 1847 by a company
of "Mormon" pioneers under the leadership of
Brigham Young. The Beehive was chosen as
an emblem signifying industry. Utah became
a state in 1896. This seal was adopted April
3, 1896 by the first state legislature which was
held in Salt Lake City from January to April
1896.
