• Aultorest Memorial Park: Mountain View Cemetery: 836 36th St., Ogden. Jewish population in 1919 was 125. Source: Directory of Jewish Local Organizations in the United States pp. 330-583. American Jewish Year Book-5680 September 25, 1919 to Sept. 12, 1920; Volume 21, Edited by Harry Schneiderman for the American Jewish Committee, from Alan Hirschfeld  /   http://www.usgennet.org/usa/ut/county/weber/cemetery/aultorest/index.htm has photos and link to burial list. "Burials in Aultorest began in 1929, but the Mountain View section dates back to the late 1800s. Unfortunately, the records from Mountain View were not extant and Aultorest had to reconstruct those burials from tombstones. Therefore, there are unmarked burials in the Mountain View section and there is no means to determine who they might have been." [August 2005]
