South Weber, Utah

South Weber is a small city in the northeast corner of Davis County.  South Weber shares a border with Weber County to the north, Layton to the south, the Wasatch Mountains to the east, and Hill Air Force Base to the west.  This little city was settled by Mormon pioneers in 1851, and residents named their settlement after the nearby Weber River.  An interesting fact about South Weber: The Morrisite War took place here in 1862.  This three-day skirmish between the Utah Territorial Militia and the Morrisites, a dissentious break-away sect of the LDS church, resulted in the deaths of eleven individuals.  A monument commemorating the lives of those lost in the Morrisite War now stands at the site of the battle in South Weber.
