Call's Fort

 (1855-18??) - A Mormon settler Fort established during the Walker Indian War in 1855 near Brigham City, Box Elder County, Utah. Probably abandoned as a fortification after the end of the Ute Black Hawk War (1865-1872).

History
First established as Harper in 1852 just north of Brigham City. In 1854, Anson Call of Bountiful joined the settlement and established a large farm with a home and blacksmith shop. At the request of Brigham Young and with help from his neighbors, they enclosed the buildings with a wall 8 feet high and 3 feet thick as a Fort and refuge from hostile Indians during the Walker Indian War. The fort enclosed a tract of land 120 feet square and was the most northerly outpost in Utah.

Probably abandoned as a fortification after the end of the Ute Black Hawk War (1865-1872).

Current Status
Monument and marker north of Brigham City, Box Elder County, Utah.
