Recorder,Mining notices of location,1889-1893.,Chronological by date filed,"This series contains notices of location which provide the name of the claim\, locators\, location\, legal description and the mining district. Mining records\, which constitute a legal record\, are kept for the purpose of monitoring and registering mining claims and operations. The Box Elder Mining District Recorder recorded mining operations in Box Elder County\, Utah.,Until the law changed in 1897\, mining districts in Utah had the option of electing their own mining district recorder. Many of the large mining districts\, including the Box Elder Mining District\, chose to elect their own recorders while claims and other records within smaller mining districts or in unorganized areas were filed with the county recorder. Although the mining district elected its own recorder\, mining operations within in the mining district were also recorded with the county recorder during this time. The district recorder ended by 1897 when the law changed and the county recorder assumed sole responsibility for mining records (Laws of Utah\, 1897\, Chapter 36).",,Public,1 microfilm reel
