What branch of christianity settled in utah in 1800s?

While Catholic Missionaries were the first Christians to pass through what is now Utah, members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) were the first Christians to establish permanent settlements, arriving in 1847. Other Christian groups soon followed, often drawn by the economic promise of the west. The first Catholic church in Utah was established in 1866 with only 4 families meeting in a shed. Their first real church, St Mary Magdalene, was completed in 1871. The Episcopal Church was the first Protestant Christian church established in Utah, with the first meetings held in a rented hall in 1867 and St. Mark's Cathedral being dedicated in 1871. Congregationalists first arrived in 1865, and established a permanent congregation in 1872. Methodist missionaries arrived in 1869, and by 1871 had a large enough congregation to build the First Methodist Church of Salt Lake City. The First Presbyterian Church of Salt Lake City was organized in 1873; the first Lutheran Church, Zion Swedish Lutheran, was established in 1882; and the first permanent Baptist Church began in 1882.

You ask how you can find out why your brother is in prison in Utah. I don't mean this to sound flip but wouldn't the simplest way be to write or visit and ask him directly?

If you can't afford to visit him in Utah, a 41-cent stamp will get a letter to him. A letter from a relative would probably be a great morale-booster for him.
