BACKED WITH Two small tourist views of Brigham Young's grave and part of the Pioneer Memorial Monument on 2nd Avenue and the Brigham Young Schoolhouse which was located on the northeast corner of South Temple and State, across the street from Brigham Young's homes. This school was built in 1860 within the Brigham Young estate and is where Brigham Young's own children attended school. Charles Roscoe Savage (1832-1909) was an accomplished and prolific photographer who lived successfully within his Salt Lake City community and traveled widely throughout the West taking photographs and befriending other important photographers of his day such as Carleton Watkins, Edward Wilson, Timothy O'Sullivan, Alfred Hart and A.J. Russell. Savage took several of the West's most famous images at the celebration of the joining of the transcontinental railroads at Promontory Point, Utah in 1869. Savage also took the first photographs of what became Zion National Park.
