Signs of the Book of Mormon
Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints believe the Book of Mormon to be the "keystone" of their religion. As such, it is no wonder that a number of Utah cities — Nephi, Lehi, Bountiful, Manti and others — derive their titles from this sacred book. Some church members over the years have also used Book of Mormon names for their children.
But there are also some Mormon-named streets around too, such as Mormon Avenue in Yucca Valley, Calif., or Mormon Creek Road in Missoula,, Mont.
More recently, some subdivisions have begun using Book of Mormon names, as well.
