Anniversary Of First Settlement Passes July 17 Almost forgotten in the lapse of 88 years, the anniversary of the first settlement in what is now American Fork passed July 17. Because excellent pasture was to be found near the shores of Utah lake, the pioneers of Salt Lake valley soon were attracted to this section. In 1850, they were sending send-ing herds of cattle, tired and "poor" from wearisome crossing of the plains, to Utah valley. So it happened that the first pioneer settlement here was made by herd boys, and their superintendent, superin-tendent, Matthew Caldwell, and his family. They arrived here July 17, 1850, according to the account ac-count given by Mrs. M. A. Despaln of this city. Mrs. Despain relates the history of the "first family", as follows: "Matthew Caldwell and wife, Barzilla Guymon Caldwell and three children. Thomas, Rachel Almlra and Curtis Washington Caldwell, were the first family to live here, in American Fork. They arrived In Salt Lake City on the thirteenth of July, 1850. Next morning Mr. Caldwell and family started for American Fork to superintend sup-erintend , the boys who were taking tak-ing cattle on the lake shores. On account of the heat of the season and the poorness of the animals, it took until July 17 to make the trip from Salt Lake City to American Amer-ican Fork. . "Landing the seventeenth of July. In the evening (little Thomas" Thom-as" sixth birthday), they camped here that night. Rachel Almira was four years old, and the pet of the camp. She was born at Council Bluffs, Iowa. Her father at that time was In the Mormon Battalion. Baby Curtis Washington Washing-ton was a year and a half old. . "Mr. Caldwell built the first house. It was not only the family's fami-ly's home, but also housed the herd boys. The Caldwell's were Uncle Matf and 'Aunt Zillte' to the boys. "On July 17 of this year marked the eighty-ninth anniversary of American Fork. "After living here eight months, on March 20, 1850 the CaldweUs I were Instructed with some more boys and cattle to move on to Spanish Fork. At this time, the spring of 1851, a number of families fami-lies came to live in American Fork. Among them were Mrs. Caldwell's family, the Guymons. James, her brother, was chosen to be one of the first bishopric." o Secret of Surt cfts in Life The great secret of success in life s for a man to be ready when his opportunity comes - -Disraeli.
