Payson Writer Madoline Dixon’s Legacy

As if out of nowhere, the black and white photograph of a young Madoline Cloward Dixon Huseby (above) turned up at The Payson Chronicle office last week. The discovery was timely, if not synchronistic.  Newspaper staff had been working on a story about Mormon pioneer and local settler James Pace, from whom Payson got its name.  Madoline’s book Peteetneet Town, A History of Payson, Utah served as a helpful source throughout the story’s composition.

More to come in the upcoming edition of The Payson Chronicle.
