WJHS Overview The West Jordan Historical Society was established in 1998 with the goal of opening a West Jordan Historical Museum. Later in early 1999 the historical society was offered a surplus house that later became part of the citys main park. The house located at 7800 south and 2053 west is a small West Jordan homestead including several out buildings an orchard tons of trees chickens and antique machinery.
