Abstract
As most of my research tends to do, this project took quite a different turn then originally intended. I intended this research to continue on with the topic of my senior thesis concerning the political activism of women in Utah during the 1920s by adding a different layer to the picture. In my research prior to this, I looked at Utah women in general without really looking at how religious convictions played into the equation. I intended this project to fill in this gap and to produce something I could add to my previous work. As it turns out, this research, while adding to a foundation I already have in Utah women’s political history, created a project and paper of its own.
