History
Heber City was first settled in 1859 by Robert Broadhead, James Davis, and James Gurr. John W. Witt built the first house in the area. The area was under the direction of Bishop Silas Smith, who was in Provo. In 1860, Joseph S. Murdock became the bishop of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Heber City and its vicinity.
During the Second World War, a group of Japanese-Americans formed a voluntary relocation camp in nearby Keetley. Some Japanese-Americans also resided in Heber City.
