Inscription. This charming Victorian cottage was built for Elizabeth following the passing of her husband, David Francis. An avid gardener, Elizabeth cultivated a vibrant array of flowers, which she generously shared with friends and family. She lived in the home until 1919, when her declining health prompted her to move to Provo to live with her son.

The house was then sold to George Alma and Zella Davis Blackley, who used it as their town residence so their four sons could attend school. Zella, renowned for her culinary talents, was especially famous throughout the community for her delectable pies and her love of entertaining. The Blackley family retained ownership of the home until 1994. In a labor of love, Camille Blackley Palmer, a great-granddaughter of Zella, and her husband Gary restored the home to its original elegance, preserving its timeless beauty and charm.

Erected by Heber City.
