The Roe A. and Louise R. Deal House is an historic house in Springville, Utah, United States. The house was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1998. Along with eleven other properties, the Deal House was nominated to the National Register via the Springville Multiple Property Submission

The NRHP nomination for the house argues that it “is significant in the broad patterns of Springville history as an example of the larger, more substantially constructed homes built during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries”, and that it demonstrates the development in Springville of awareness of popular architectural styles elsewhere.

The Crandall Houses at 112 and 136 E. 200 North in Springville, Utah are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. They are the Clarence L. Crandall House and the Nelson D. Crandall House. The houses were both built in 1900, and are twin houses that look virtually identical. The designs appear to be adapted from pattern books circulating around that time. The design of the houses reflects the Victorian ideal of adapting high-style architecture to vernacular style homes. The Queen Anne-style trim, in particular, is unique within Springville.

Nephi and Annie Kindred House

The Nephi and Annie Kindred House was constructed in 1896 by mason Andrew Berkley and carpenter Reuben Richardson. Nephi was a well-known blacksmith in Springville during the 1890s. He died, however, before the house was completed. Annie sold the house to her daughter and son-in-law Harriett and Myron (Pep) Crandall in 1935 and continued to live here until her death in 1950. The Crandalls had lived in the house since 1909, the year they were married. Pep was employed as a contractor and resided in the house until his death in 1968. Harriet continued to reside in the home until 1983.

This Springville house was built in 1896 by Romanzo and Helen Deal.  Romanzo and his brothers began the mercantile firm of Deal Brothers & Mendenhall, one of the leading firms in railway construction in the West.  He was also a rancher, served as mayor for three terms, and was president of the Springville Banking Co. until his death in 1903.

When Helen died in 1910, the house was inherited by their daughter who sold the home to her cousin, Guy Mendenhall, a prominent construction contractor, merchant, and banker.  His son, V. Cornell, and his wife, Bessie, bought the house in 1924.  Cornell carried on the family tradition of construction begun by his grandfather.  V. Cornell sold the home in 1962 to his daughter, Lucille and her husband, Kent Huntsman.  They restored the home in 1994.

historic, Spanish Explorers, spanish fork, utah, utah county

On July 29, 1776, Fathers Dominguez and Escalante with their party of 10 left Santa Fe, New Mexico, to find a new route to Monterey, California. After nearly 1000 miles they and their two native guides reached the mouth of Spanish Fork Canyon on Sept. 23, 1776. They climbed a hill and caught sight of the lake and spreading valley rimmed by Yuta Timpanogotzis Indian villages. They named it the Valley And Lake Of Our Lady Of Mercy Of The Timpanogotzis. They stayed in the valley four days meeting with the Indians and teaching them about Christianity and their salvation.

The hill the Padres climbed to see the valley was dedicated as Dominguez Hill 200 years later in 1976. A 37 Ft. high cross was erected on that hill and dedicated In 1981. The hill and cross can be seen by looking in a S-SW direction or by using the viewer. The cross is on private property and is not accessible.

There is a historic Marker and some pipes set to look through and see the cross set up in 1981.

historic, Midvale, Pony Express, Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County, Sandy, utah

Just north of 7200 South street, on the west side of State Street, stood Travelers’ Rest, or Traders’ Rest, the first pony express station out of Salt Lake City. This station was probably used only for a short time, and no evidence of its existence can be found at the site. The location is marked by a granite marker placed by the Pony Express Trail Association.

Richard F. Fike and John W. Headley locate this first station site west of Salt Lake City nine miles south of the Salt Lake House. The station once stood on State Street in an area referred to as Lovendahl’s Corner.  Some sources generally identify this first relay station as Trader’s Rest or Traveler’s Rest.  The 1861 mail contract identified Trader’s Rest Station, where Absalom Smith managed station operations. After the Pony Express era, someone added wood siding and a false front to the adobe building to convert it into a business establishment. The building was also used as a garage prior to its destruction sometime before 1979.

historic, Randolph, Rich County, utah, Woodruff


Randolph lies in the shadow of the Crawford Mountains against the western foothills of the Upper Bear River between two creeks, Big Creek on the south and Little Creek on the north. In answer to a call from the general authorities of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Randolph H. Stewart and others arrived in the Bear River Valley March, 1870. One week later, Apostle Charles C. Rich and Company came. They surveyed the town and named it Randolph, in honor of the first Bishop, Randolph H. Stewart. Many others soon followed and by the spring of 1871 Randolph was a thriving town, having established a post office, store, blacksmith shop and sawmill. These early settlers were men and women with courage and fortitude ready to brave the severe climate and hardships. Progression has continued with the coming of electricity, the water system, modern communications and transportation. From the one-room schoolhouse, education continues with the latest technology and modern facilities. The cattle and sheep industries have sustained many families throughout the years. The stately tabernacle, dedicated July 26, 1914, depicts the faith of the early settlers. This devotion is evident today as men and women serve missions throughout the world. As the need to defend our freedom has arisen. many have responded to the call of our country … some having made the supreme sacrifice.

We salute those who have contributed to the development of this community. They are men and women of foresight and dedication … all desiring to establish an abundant life for now as well as for future generations!
