with two unidentified children and his wife Agnes Widdison
(daughter of Janet Russell and Thomas Widdison).
House built in Birch Creek, Sanpete,
Utah, by James Campbell Livingston Sr. about 1887. The house was
was referred to as the finest in the valley and very elegantly
furnished. Peacocks roamed about the yard, beautiful flowers
bloomed and were well cared for. There was a pond on the
property, used to store water for irrigating the crops, garden,
shrubs, and trees. Ducks made the pond their home, as did
polliwogs, frogs, and salamanders. In the winter, blocks of ice
were cut from this pond and stored in a small ice house. The ice
would last well into the summer. James is seated on the porch at
the right, with his left arm on the rail. His right arm having
been blown off by an accidental dynamite explosion while cutting
granite at the stone quarry in Little Cottonwood Canyon to be
used in the building of the Salt Lake Temple. -
