Abstract
Plain City is a, rural village of 822 people (Sixteenth Census, United States, 1940) located on a fiat, plain area ten miles northwest of Olden, Utah, a city of 51,927 people (1946 survey of the Weber County-Ogden City Planning Commission).
Plain City was founded by Mormon pioneers in 1859 after the pattern followed in nearly all the early settlements of this area. The use of the square block on the basis of the four cardinal points of the compass was standard. Village living for all, farmers as well as non-farmers, was the accepted form of building new villages, towns or cities.
