**Templates for the tables were causing problems. Changed to putting the full table on each county. If problems do arise, they will now be easier to fix.
**Thanks, Liz, for your ideas and hard work.
**Liz was delayed seriously until this was done, yet has still finished through ___
**Color, since we don't have table borders?
**Notice the colors
*[[Salt Lake County, Utah#Churches and Religious Groups|Salt Lake County]] LDS Church records
*[[Cache County, Utah#Churches and Religious Groups|Cache County]] LDS Church records
**Exciting breakthrough! Link to FHLC for stakes
**Check out Benson Stake!
**Want an uncopyrighted map of SLC (1923 or before). Purpose--to make a clickable map of stakes per Jenson's (about 1930)
**Last time Pat pointed out that the stake won't work for any wards or branches stopped before 1908, or organized after 1917.  
**Pat suggested the ward maps; James said Sanborn maps back in 1800's -- Historic Map Works.com; Pat will look on Church History and BYU. OldMapsOnline.org - a portal to about 35,000 maps; David Dilts has done a lot with maps - he might know of some. City directories? 1888 SLC and vicinit with wards; 1920 also that is divided -- See Pat.
***Soooo, an ''Excel'' file was created to compare all Utah church units in the Catalog with those included in our Wiki files.  
**Stake won't work for unit stopped before 1908, or oganized after 1917. Pat.
***With the Catalog including up to 1948, there will be several that are added to our pages.
**Comparisons: [[Cache County, Utah#Churches and Religious Groups|Cache County]];  [[Box Elder County, Utah#Churches and Religious Groups|Box Elder County]]
***It seems to happen every time a problem is brought up with LDS Church records, a new and better way of doing it emerges.
**[[Salt Lake County, Utah#Churches and Religious Groups|Salt Lake City stakes]] This area is very unorganized right now. Pat talked with David Dilts, who has agreed to create clickable maps so people can click an area where their people lived and it will take them to the stake! Thanks Pat and David!
*Maps: Have put the OldMapsOnline.org link to Utah on every county.
