Cemeteries
The Salt Lake City Cemetery is located at 200 "N" Street. BillionGraves has some photos of headstones, with transcriptions, on their site. There are other locations online with transcriptions of headstones from this large cemetery, which has tens of thousands of burials, and may be in fact the largest in the state. Because of the fact that the cemetery has been in existence from the early days of Salt Lake City's existence, many prominent figures from throughout the city's history are buried there, and the cemetery office offers a map showing where some of these people are buried at there.
