** Payne's thesis relies heavily on primary sources to tell the story of the building and various uses of the Territorial Statehouse.
* '' Milestones of Millard: A Century of History in Millard County 1851-1951'' compiled by Stella H. Day and Sebrina C. Ekins. D.U.P. of Millard County, 1951.
** ''Milestones'', while not a scholarly history, provides stories about the Territorial Statehouse. Some information is from first-hand accounts, although most is from grandchildren of people involved.
* ''Twenty Five Years in Millard County'' by Volney King. Unpublished manuscript, 1910.
** King was a young man when he arrived in Fillmore, Utah, and wrote this book late in his life using memories as well as diary entries. It is one of the most complete records we have from someone who was here as the building was being built.
