Do you know of Utah ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Utah. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Utah.<1>

Our sources for Utah (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Utah other than they indicate that Utah would be found somewhere in Indiana County, Pennsylvania.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1859 and closed  in 1907.
