John H. Burton was an architect based in Salt Lake City, Utah.

He was a young architect when joined by Richard K.A. Kletting.[1]

His plans for the Territorial Insane Asylum (completed in 1885) in Provo, Utah were completed after his death around 1884 by his intern/apprentice/colleague Richard K.A. Kletting,[2] Kletting later became the leading architect in Utah.

He worked with partner named either Pope or Hope.
