History
The area, then part of Layton, was settled in the 1870s by James Hill and his family. Early settlers used it to graze their animals but, even though the land was fertile, culinary water had to be hauled in from the Weber River.
The area was commonly called The Range, Sand Ridge, The Basin and The Summit. The first school was built in 1885 just south of the cemetery.[3]
Dry farming began in the area of Clinton in 1879. By 1881 there was a railroad station. In 1884 the Summit Basin Branch of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was organized in Clinton.[4]
The first ward in Clinton was organized on May 29, 1897. It was called 'The Clinton Ward'.[5]
Clinton would not become an official town until 1936, and its growth was relatively small until the 1960s.
In 1950, the total population of Clinton City was only 670 and it would be 19 years before the city even established its own police department.[3]
