Catholics migrated west to utah in search of religious freedom.
true
false

The best answer to the question: Catholics migrated west to Utah in search of religious freedom, would be, true.

Explanation:

The nineteenth century was the one period in history that saw the biggest wave of immigration of Catholic Europeans into the United States. Before the American Revolution, and before the U.S was born as a country, there were a small group of Catholics who settled in the colonies, but they were few and were mostly shunned by Protestants due to their faith. Many had to seek refuge in "tolerant" colonies. However, with the advent of the 19th century, and the large immigration from Europe of Catholics, Protestant Americans believed that their country was going to be "turned Catholic" and so, they were very reticent to admit newly migrated Catholics into their midst. In response to the situation, a lot of Catholics began to move towards the West, especially to the new territories of Utah and California, to establish themselves there. Many of these Catholics moved together with the newly formed Mormon Church, as they too became prey to the disdain of Protestants of other denominations. This is why the answer is true.
