SUMMARY:The Trial and Tragedy of Patrick Coughlin presented by Barb Martz and Brian Craig on TUESDAY\, October 14
DESCRIPTION:Park City Museum will host a lecture called The Trial and Tragedy of Patrick Coughlin presented by Barb Martz and Brian Craig on Tuesday\, October 14\, 2025 from 5-6 p.m. at the Education and Collections Center located at 2079 Sidewinder Drive.  Please note the day change on the lecture from Wednesday night to Tuesday night.  More information can be found at www.parkcityhistory.org.   \nPatrick Coughlin was the son of Irish immigrants who brought him to Park City as a young boy in the early 1880’s. In1895\, he and two friends stole a box of strawberries from a merchant’s wagon parked on Main Street. When local sheriff John Harrington went looking for them\, they left town on ‘borrowed’ horses. And then things went from bad to worse… \nTogether the lecturers will share what they have uncovered in their extensive research on the events in 1895 and 1896 which led to one of Utah’s most intensive manhunts in history and the first execution after Utah statehood. Barbara will focus on Coughlin’s early life and escapades in Park City; Brian will focus on the trial\, appeals\, and judicial decisions. They hope to present several sides to the story and ask the question of the audience “What do you think?” \nBarbara Martz has lived in Park City since 1973 and is currently a member of the Museum Board of Trustees and a volunteer researcher and tour guide for the Glenwood Cemetery. She has a Bachelor degree in History from the University of California Irvine\, and a Master degree in Public Administration from the University of Utah.\nWhen Barbara first came to Park City to ski in 1970\, she bought a copy of Fraser Buck’s book Treasure Mountain Home\, and was fascinated with Park City’s history\, especially the piece about Pasty Coughlin and friends stealing strawberries from a merchant’s wagon on Main Street and the events that followed. Over the years\, she has continued to research the Coughlin affair\, visiting locations of the critical events and meeting with descendants of lawmen who knew Coughlin.  \nBrian Craig is a lawyer in private practice in Logan\, Utah and a full-time faculty member at Purdue University Global where he teaches online legal courses. He received his undergraduate degree from Brigham Young University and his law degree from the University of Idaho. Brian has more than 23 years of experience as a lawyer. He has written articles appearing in various publications\, including the Utah Bar Journal\, and is the author of several books\, including one addressing Cyberlaw and one addressing legal legacy of the Stringfellow Acid Pits\, a toxic waste superfund site in the Jurupa Valley near Riverside\, California. His latest book entitled Utah Outlaw Patrick Coughlin: The Crime Spree of a Forgotten Desperado is a true crime biography about Park City’s strawberry thief and the first person executed in Utah after statehood. This book is scheduled to be released later this year by Arcadia Publishing and The History Press.  It is available for pre-order on Amazon and will be published January 13\, 2026.

SUMMARY:Deaths in the Park City Shafts lecture given by Brian Buck
DESCRIPTION:Park City Museum will host a lecture called Deaths in the Park City Shafts given by Brian Buck on Wednesday\, October 29\, 2025 from 5-6 p.m. held at the Education and Collections Center located at 2079 Sidewinder Drive.  More information can be found at www.parkcityhistory.org. \nThe mines around Park City were dangerous places to work.  Miners lost their lives under rock falls and explosions underground or by avalanches and ore wagons on the surface.  Then there was miners’ consumption that caused fatal illness in many miners.  The most horrific mine accidents happened in the many mine shafts around town.  These were always newsworthy and the local Park Record published descriptions of at least 48 shaft accidents between 1880 and 1980.  The author of this presentation has done the research to uncover these news articles.  He will describe a number of these accidents\, the causal factors involved\, traumas to the victims\, and measures employed over the years to reduce the occurrence of the accidents.   \nBrian Buck has degrees in Geology and Geological Engineering and has worked with the mining industry in the U.S. West since 1976.  He studies the local mining history of Park City and enjoys sharing this history with others.  He has presented multiple lectures on mining topics for the Park City Museum\, contributes to the Way We Were columns in the Park Record\, and has led a number of tours to the remaining\nmining structures around Park City.  He is a member of the Friends of Ski Mountain Mining History\, a committee of the Park City Museum\, where he is the Project Manager for the mine stabilization projects of that committee.
