Isaac Trumbo (1858–1912) was a prominent California businessman and a colonel in the California National Guard. He was born in Nevada and grew up in Salt Lake City. His mother was a member of the Church of Later Day Saints, and he was known for his good relationships with the church. His dream was to see Utah become a state. He became the an important lobbyist for this cause. His efforts helped Utah finally achieve statehood.[1]

After the statehood question was resolved, in 1895 Trumbo and his wife moved to Salt Lake City and took up residence in the Gardo House, a large mansion originally built by Brigham Young for one of his wives, and later the official residence of the president of the church.[2] He became active in the Utah Republican Party and became identified as an advocate for the Free Silver doctrine.[1] Trumbo believed that he would be offered one of Utah's two seats in the United States Senate as a reward for his statehood efforts. However, this did not occur, in part because Utah's non-Mormons were concerned that Trumbo was too closely aligned with Mormon interests. The Trumbos returned to San Francisco, although they maintained a close relationship with church president Wilford Woodruff, who died in 1898 at Trumbo's home.[2]

Trumbo lost his home on Sutter Street in 1911 after failing to pay the mortgage. He died in November 1912, after he was assaulted in street.[1]
