Lark, Utah was a town in Salt Lake County that doesn’t exist anymore. Nestled against the Oquirrh Mountains close to Herriman, it was formed in the late 1800s. The mine (and town) were sold in 1977, bought by Kennecott Company and demolished in 1978. The story behind Kennecott Company’s treatment of the people in Lark made national headlines with article’s printed in Time and People magazine in 1978. Very little research was done on the townsite and the people who lived there. This semester I have become involved in a project set in place by Dr. Christopher Merritt, Deputy SHPO/Antiquities Coordinator for the State of Utah. This blog is to record the research advances to document Lark, Utah and the people who lived there using many approaches. We will be conducting oral interviews as a starting point. Much more will be written here as the project advances.
