Early Pioneers
A unique feature of the National Sons of Utah Pioneers National Building is the Pioneer Memorialization Boards on the walls of the Main Floor Wide Hallway. Over 6,000 pioneer names who came to Utah before Statehood in 1896 have been placed on these boards by descendants. Biographies of these pioneers have been placed in the NSSUP Library. ( For further information on this program and how you might memorialize your own pioneer ancestors, CLICK HERE.)

Deceased Members of SUP
The National SUP Board has approved the addition of another set of boards on the North wall of the Lower Level Pioneer Room. These will be referred to as the “In Memoriam” boards (see below). The purpose of these boards is to provide a place where chapters, families or friends may formally remember Sons of Utah Pioneers and their spouses who have passed on to the "Chapter Eternal". The information on the "In Memoriam Form" will be filed in the NSSUP Library along with any accompanying obituaries. These biographies will be available to library visitors and in the future will be placed on the SUP website. The cost of providing this service by the NSSUP will be $35, the same cost charged for the memorialization of a head of a family. An index of the names with their board location will be maintained so names can be found by viewers.

A picture of the deceased member of Sons of Utah Pioneers is encouraged with the submission of the "In Memoriam" form. We encourage chapters, family and friends to use these boards as a way of remembering individuals who have been affiliated with the Sons of Utah Pioneers during their lives.
