In 1844 the Mormons followed Brigham Young to what would become the Utah Territory.

Brigham Young, led the members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, The Mormons, to Utah, and founded Salt Lake City in 1847. He served as Utah's first governor, appointed by President Millard Fillmore, from 1851 to 1858.
There is no leader of members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) specifically over the state of Utah. The closest position would be Elder Steven E. Snow, one of the seven presidents of the Seventy. He presides over the Utah North, Utah Salt Lake City, and Utah South areas of the Church. Some of these area boundaries extend into neighboring states, so he oversees more than just Utah. Also, some parts of northwestern Utah are in the boundaries of the Idaho Area, which is overseen by Elder Donald L. Halstrom, another of the seven presidents of Seventy. "Areas" within the Mormon church are geographical groups of several stakes (a stake is a group of congregations). Utah is unique in being split into so many areas, due to the large Mormon population. Other areas are much larger (for example, the North America Northwest Area covers the east coast of the US And Canada from the northern border of California all the way to Alaska; and the Europe Area covers every European country west of Belarus and Ukraine.) Leaders are not assigned over a certain city, state, province, or country but over a geographical area covering a certain number of members. The worldwide headquarters of the Mormon Church is located in Utah, and most of the international leadership lives in Utah. The leader of the entire church is Thomas S. Monson. So, to summarize: The leader of all Mormons, who happens to live in Utah: Thomas S. Monson: The leader of Mormons who live in Utah: not an existent position; Steven E. Snow and Donald L. Halstrom oversee Utah and portions of bordering states.

Brigham Young led the first group of Mormon pioneers to Utah, and over the next 30 years was the leader of the church while hundreds more pioneers travelled to Utah. Since Brigham Young died in 1877, there have been many leaders of the Mormon church. While each of these leaders have lived in Utah, they lead the entire worldwide church, not just members in Utah.
Joseph Smith is the one who directed the early Mormons to move from New York to Ohio and from Ohio to Missouri and Illinois. In Illinois, he prophesied that they would have to move to the Rocky Mountains to find peace, and plans were in place to make the move. It was not until after his murder, however, that they would travel to Utah. Brigham Young was the leader who made the call for everyone to pack up and move to Utah from Illinois.
