As the first Jewish family to settle in pioneer Utah, Isabella (Fanny) and Julius Brooks and their children had a lot of adjustments to make when they arrived in Salt Lake City in 1864. But the initial awkwardness soon wore away as the Brooks family became accepted members of the Salt Lake community. Isabella, commonly called Fanny, was largely responsible for her family's growing prominence in the city. Outspoken and energetic, she ran a boarding house and millinery shop and added a personal touch to her customer service.
In 1868 Brigham Young announced an anti-gentile edict in which he forbade Mormons from doing business with non-Mormons. Mormon merchants were advised to place an all-seeing-eye sign with the legend "Holiness to the Lord" above their store entrance to indicate their religious affiliation. Non-Mormon merchants quickly began to sell out and leave town.
Angry and unwilling to just pack up and leave, Fanny Brooks demanded a personal interview with Brigham Young. When they met she expressed her concern about leaving a city where she had devoted so much time and effort to its betterment. In response, Young explained that some of the non-Mormon merchants had come to Salt Lake with the aim of running the town. He realized that Fanny and her family were an exception to the rule and promised that she could continue to board Mormon customers in her home. From that day on, the church leader remained friendly with the Brookses and supportive of their Jewish faith. As a symbol of his good will he offered to donate land for a Jewish cemetery in 1869.
