1916 · No-Ni-Shee Arch
The No-Ni-Shee Arch was a temporary archway near the intersection of Main Street and South Temple in downtown Salt Lake City. The archway was built in 1916 for the Wizard of the Wasatch festival. The name No-Ni-Shee was derived from a mythical American Indian Salt Princess. Her tears caused the Great Salt Lake to be salty. The arch was dedicated to her and sprayed with salt water so that salt eventually crystallized on Main Street. The Wizard’s carnivals enlivened Utah’s summers for several years. The last Wizard of the Wasatch carnival was held in 1916, on the eve of World War I.
1935 · The FBI is Established

Name Meaning
English: variant of Eastham , Easton , or Easun. The latter is itself also a variant of Neston, a habitational name from Neston in Corsham (Wiltshire), probably deriving from Old English næss ‘headland, promontory’ + tūn ‘farmstead, settlement’, or from Neston (Cheshire), from Old English næss or Old Norse nes ‘headland, promontory’, or perhaps Old English nesu ‘nose’, with the same sense, + Old English tūn. Alternatively, Neston may be a topographic name from Middle English an esten tun (Old English on ēastan tūne), denoting someone who lived ‘on the east of the village’.
Scottish: variant of Esson .
