This article examines the demographics and motivations of women who homesteaded in Utah. It provides historical background for the legal and social challenges presented to these women, and concludes that "Utah’s female homesteaders were independent yet cooperative, hard-working members of their communities and families, and, as did women on other homesteading frontiers, they managed and used the land they came to own to meet personal and family aspirations and economic challenges."
