It is named for the thirteenth U.S. President Millard Fillmore, who was in office when Millard County was created by the Utah Territorial legislature. Fillmore was the capital of the Utah Territory from 1851 to 1856, although the territorial legislature met in Fillmore only one term (1855). The original Utah Territorial Statehouse building still stands.

See
See Utah Territorial Statehouse (Territorial Statehouse State Park Museum)
The Utah Territorial Statehouse is a museum and park which preserves the original seat of government for Utah Territory before the capital was moved to Salt Lake City in 1856. Built from 1852-1855, the statehouse was initially intended as a larger structure, but only the south wing was completed before the project was abandoned due to lack of federal funding. After its construction, the Utah Territorial Legislative Assembly met in the building for only one full session and parts of two others.
