Brigham Young -Dixie mapBrigham Young -Dixie map

Utah’s Dixie, Brigham Young  sent people here.

The original Dixie area that comprised the St. George Stake of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints was large in land area. He had a vision of how it would be in the future. I’m glad he sent my ancestors here though they were not all thrilled at what they found here. Every summer the City of St. George, Utah sponsors a tour June 1 to the end of August, Tuesday through Saturday called St. George Live. This tour visits historic buildings where actors and actresses portray pioneers who were instrumental in founding Dixie.  It buses the visitors to several of those sites.  The last one is the summer home of Colonizer Brigham Young. For several years I have been one of the actors to portray Brother Brigham.
