24162,Rush Valley Mining District (Utah). Recorder,Proof of labor records,1870-1896.,Chronological by date recorded.,"As originally written\, the Rush Valley Mining District by-laws\, required a full day's work on each claim in each month. However\, the mining district did not require the recorder to begin keeping a record of this work until the by-laws were revised in 1870 (By-laws Rush Valley Mining District\, Utah Territory\, Utah State Archives\, series 3651). In 1873 the district amended by-laws to comply with federal mining law\, which passed in 1872. According to this regulation the Rush Valley District required at least $100 worth of improvements in each year. The district also required the mining district recorder or his deputy to make a personal inspection of the work done. Each document in this book is the signed statement of the district recorder confirming that he has examined a certain claim and verifying that the owner has done sufficient labor to meet district requirements. Each document names the person requesting the examination.",,Public,1 microfilm reel
