Education
4
The Presbyterian church entered Utah Territory and expanded rapidly between 1869 and 1883. Around 1911, it erected this building as the Ferron Wasatch Academy, one of forty such institutions in Utah. These private educational systems led to the establishment of higher education in Utah. It remained a church and school until 1942, when it was sold to the Ferron American Legion Post no. 42. It is in use today as a center for community activities.
