Here's another interesting tidbit regarding the history of Marriott-Slaterville: It didn't always have a hyphenated name. The Weber County city was incorporated in July 1999 in a merger of the earlier unincorporated communities of Marriott and Slaterville. The new name was the result of co-founders John Marriott and Richard Slater. Photos are courtesy of Weber State University, Stewart Library, Special Collections.
