William J. Silver Park
William J. Silver, 1832-1918

Born in London, England and educated as a mechanical engineer, William J. Silver came to Salt Lake City in 1859 where he performed work on many mills and mines in the Salt Lake area. In 1865 Mr. Silver purchased a lot for his home and shop at the corner of Center and Peach Streets (now 500 North). Here he established a small iron works company which was the fore- runner of the Silver Brothers Iron Works. In 1868 Mr. Silver built the first steam engine in Utah and installed it in a boat on the Great Salt Lake. He also fabricated the gates and iron fencing sur- rounding the Brigham Young Cemetery. Mr. Silver lived at 512 Center Street.

Park name submitted by Randall Dixon, 1987.

Hatch Park – A Brief History

The Town of North Salt Lake was incorporated on September 3, 1946 and the first Town officials were appointed. In 1949 Ray C. Hatch was elected Town President with Alton L. Boggess, Jack Cummings, Julius Edleman, and Freda Wood as the first Town Board. Ray Hatch served two four-year terms as president, from 1949 to 1957.

On July 5, 1955 Town President Ray C. Hatch and the Town Board purchased this land from the Bamberger Railroad. Citizens donated their time and efforts in changing the burned-out area from the Bamberger Fire into a baseball park. Later the park was expanded to include a playground, pavilion, and restrooms. These great tasks were performed with a minimum amount of money and a maximum amount of effort.
