Isaac Trumbo : ウィキペディア英語版 | Isaac Trumbo Isaac Trumbo (1858–1912) was a prominent California businessman and a colonel in the California National Guard. He was born in Nevada and grew up in Salt Lake City. Although not a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, his mother was and he had good relationships with the church. His dream was to see Utah become a state. He became the most important lobbyist for this cause. It was mainly through his efforts that Utah finally achieved statehood.〔Edward Leo Lyman, (here "Isaac Trumbo and the Politics of Utah Statehood" ), ''Utah Historical Quarterly'', vol. 41, no. 2, pp. 128-149 (Spring 1973).〕 After the statehood question was resolved, in 1895 Trumbo and his wife moved to Salt Lake City and took up residence in the Gardo House, a large mansion originally built by Brigham Young for one of his wives, and later the official residence of the president of the church.〔Sandra Dawn Brimhall and Mark D. Curtis, ("The Gardo House: A History of the Mansion and Its Occupants" ), ''Utah History to Go'' (accessed January 14, 2011).〕 He became active in the Utah Republican Party and became identified as an advocate for the Free Silver doctrine.〔 Trumbo believed that he would be offered one of Utah's two seats in the United States Senate as a reward for his statehood efforts. However, this did not occur, in part because Utah's non-Mormons were concerned that Trumbo was too closely aligned with Mormon interests. The Trumbos returned to San Francisco, although they maintained a close relationship with church president Wilford Woodruff, who died in 1898 at Trumbo's home.〔 Trumbo lost his home on Sutter Street in 1911 after failing to pay the mortgage. He died in November 1912, after he was assaulted in street.〔 ==References==
