Historic Homes, Payson, utah, utah county

Built in 1857, the first home built outside the fort. 

William and Grace Wignall immigrated to Utah in 1856. After a few months of living in the Payson fort, Grace told William “if he didn’t build her a home by March she would take the children and go back to England.” Her adobe home at 389 N. 100 East, completed in 1857, is oldest surviving residence within the boundaries of the historic district.

Located at 241 West 400 North in Payson, Utah, this park was built where the Wightman School stood and the plaque placed there reads:

Wightman School

Upon this site was once a private school and residence built circa 1883 by William C. and Lucretia J. Pepper Wightman. The school was built approximately 400 feet west of the northwest corner of the original fort and used to educate the children of early settlers in Payson.

When educational activities ended at the school, the structure was used as a residence until June of 2002. In August of 2003 =, the structure was demolished due to years of neglect and deterioration. This monument has been erected to remind all children that play in this park of the important role education has played in the history of the community.

Nebecker Grove, one of two interlaced groves along Peteetneet Creek was the location of the first pioneer camp at Peteetneet (Payson).

Named after Ammon Nebecker, Sr. whose home stood just outside the fort at its northwest corner, now 400 North and 400 West, Nebecker was one of the first trustees on the school board of Payson and had one of the first quadrant schools, built in 1863, named for him. It was called the Nebecker or Rock School.

This grove of century old trees, campsite of early Indians and site of early Payson celebrations was torn down to make way for the freeway in 1965.

Payson, Tabernacles, utah, utah county

This old photo (above) that I found on facebook shows the Nebo Stake Tabernacle that was previously located at 182 N Main in Payson, Utah. It was about where Central Bank and Walgreens are now. Across the street from it, on the left side of the photo you can see the old tithing office and in the background I think that is the John Dixon house.

It’s sad to see historic buildings like these go away, but to see other tithing offices and tabernacles I’ve been able to document visit these pages:
