Kanesville was named for Thomas L. Kane. The name Kanesville was adopted when The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints first organized a ward there in 1882. The first bishop was Peter B. Peterson.
The name is retained by Kanesville School, a K-6 school in West Haven. Until October 2010 the Stake of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the city was the Kanesville Utah Stake. On October 17, 2010, the Kanesville Utah Stake was divided and a new stake, the West Haven Utah Stake, was formed. The old stake retained the Kanesville name.
Wilson, Utah was formed in 1854. It was named after the four Wilson brothers who began farming in the area in 1854. An irrigation company was formed in 1879 and an LDS Ward was organized in 1882. The first bishop was Brigham Heber Bingham. The first settler to live in the area that became Wilson was John Martin. He moved from Ogden and was the first to move west of the Weber River in 1856. The Wilson Brothers started farming in the area west of the Weber River in 1854, but lived in Ogden. (History from the book, "Mormon John Martin" Utah Pioneer Family History copyright 1969 by Drucilla H. McFarland. Carr Printing.)
West Haven installed a citywide sewer system in 2002. In 1994 the city purchased 40 acres for a park which was then developed with playground equipment and sports fields. There is also a historical marker in the park.
