About this map

Coalville serves as a central hub in this corner of Summit County, situated where the waters of Chalk Creek meet the Weber River. The landscape is dominated by the sprawling Echo Reservoir, created by the Echo Dam, which reshaped the local geography and transportation corridors north of the city. To the north, the small settlement of Echo sits near the confluence of Echo Creek and the river, a historic crossroads tucked between Leonards Canyon and the notable geologic formation of Witch Rocks.

Researchers will find three primary burial grounds documented here: the Coalville Cemetery, Echo Cemetery, and Hoytsville Cemetery, providing vital locations for genealogical study. The map also traces the winding canyons and hollows that define the terrain, from Bachelor Canyon in the northwest to Dexter Hollow and Cedar Hollow in the southeast near Hoytsville. This survey preserves the modern footprint of these agricultural and gateway communities before the continued growth of the surrounding mountain region.
