They had the new home built next door. We moved into the home the week before Christmas, said Doris Sill. - . ! Although the sisters called the home a bungalow, others have called it a prairie home, because of its long, low shape and covered porch across the front. It was probably the first home of this style built in Kaysville, they said. People told my parents the home was the showplace of the county," said Alice Evans, but its not my type of architecture. Doris Sill was 17 years old when the family moved into the new home built by an architect friend of her fathers. Her sisters Melba and Alice were 14 and 10 years old re- -. spectively. The home is now owned by Alice Evans and has been rented for many years. The current renters are Matthew and Dorothy Young and their three children. ' ; This Kaysville homes most noticeable characteristic is its 10 years. I remember as a child going over to the island on a boat called Baby Ruth. It was a passenger boat. A flat boat took the cattle over, said Alice Evans. The stockman owned 18,000 acres from the top of the mountains east of Kaysville down the east side in Morgan County, from the Weber Canyon to Farmington, explained Alice Evans. Thornley owned a farm which he gave to his son, Will. According to Doris Sill, when her father was married to his first wife he had two daughters, Norma and Mattie and a son. His wife died of childbed fever after the birth of Will. Will was 6 years old when his father married Nora Bonnemort. ;1 fireplace, said Doris Sill, where the buffalo head was hung.
