At that time a new court house was built and the county moved into that facility. The structure then became solely the City Hall, until 1941 when Tooele City erected a new building. In 1942 the city leased the 1867 structure to the Daughters of Utah Pioneers for fifty years. That group utilizes the hall as a museum.
