A pioneer monument at Settler’s Park (520 South and 50 West) in Tooele, Utah was erected by the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers in 1934 in honor of the early pioneers and inscribed with the following:

THE EARLY SETTLERS OF TOOELE COUNTY WHO MADE THEIR FIRST CAMP ON THIS SPOT OF GROUND SEPTEMBER 2, 1849

JOHN ROWBERRY, WIFE AND FIVE CHILDREN JOSIAH CALL, WIFE AND ONE CHILD; CYRUS TOLMAN, WIFE AND TWO CHILDREN; JUDSON TOLMAN, WIFE AND ONE CHILD; ORSON BRAVETT, WIFE, AND FIVE CHILDREN; SAMUEL MECHAM, ROBERT SKELTON, BEN. TOLMAN, CAPTAIN WRIGHT, WIFE AND ONE BOY, F. X. LOUGY
