James & Elizabeth Barnes McNaughtan
1873
This original sandstone home has been in the McNaughtan family for seven generations. James married his wife, Elizabeth Barnes in Scotland and they traveled together to the Salt Lake Valley in a wagon after a long and difficult voyage from Liverpool England aboard the ship “Falcon” with daughter Elizabeth and two sons, Thomson and Lorenzo Barnes. Upon arriving in the Heber Valley, he built a log cabin just south of where the sandstone home stands now. He and his wife had five children. James found his way to the mines as a timber man, preparing the timbers that would hold up the mines that were just beginning to start in Park City.
