Biographical Note
Norman D. Salisbury was born in Oregon in 1892. He married Eliza H. Salisbury and had 3 children, Norman J. and Kathrine, and Clark Salisbury while working for the First Security Banking Corporation in Preston Idaho. In 1928, he was transferred to the newly acquired Logan Utah branch. While in Logan, Mr. Salisbury was actively involved in the L.D.S. Church. Soon after his arrival in Cache Valley, he served as president of the Logan LDS stake, continuing to do so until 1936. He eventually became manager of the Logan branch and became increasingly involved in the community, working frequently with local schools and businesses, in particular, with the Utah State Agricultural College.
Historical Note
The First Security Banking Corporation was founded in Ogden Utah by Marriner and George Eccles. In 1928 it acquired Thatcher Bros. Banking Company located at the corner of Center and Main St. in Logan Utah, officially changing the name in 1933. The company survived independently until it merged with Wells Fargo in 2000.
