The Fort that Jehu Built

This is the Fort that Jehu Built: Union Fort was built on Jehu & Sarah Cox’s farm in 1849. | View Photos Here | The battle of Union Fort occurred nearly 150 years later when their great-grandson Marion Cox joined with Union residents in an effort to preserve their adobe home. It was demolished & a replica built nearby & Marion Cox came to be known as the ‘Honorary Mayor of Union Fort.’
This is Their Legacy: Marion invites you to help remember our pioneer heritage with a bronze monument of Jehu & Sarah. You can contribute to the Jehu and Sarah Cox Memorial, a special project of The Community Foundation of Utah. This is How You Can Help: Donations are made to The Community Foundation of Utah, a registered charitable organization (EIN 74-3211770).
