Shown in the foreground in the undated picture above are the Hancock Building to the left and the home of William Douglass to the right. The home was located where we find Wells Fargo Bank today. |
Since the early pioneers arrived and settled Payson in
October 1850 the residents were always interested in books and
learning. What few books that they had, they were willing to share
with their neighbors. Sometimes the settlers, who didn’t know how
to read, would gather in the home of a person that was able to read
and that person would read to them and share whatever reading
materials they had.
