The Harriet Hogan Fisher Home is a historic house in Richmond. The house was constructed around 1912. In 2002, the Harriet Hogan Fisher home was nominated to be added to the National Register of Historic Places, however, the nomination never went through.
Harriet Ann Hogan was born Dec 20, 1854 in Bountiful, Utah, to Goudy Ericsen and Christiana Nelson Hogan. The Hogan family moved to Richmond in 1860, where they lived in the Richmond Fort. Harriet married William Frederick Fisher as his second polygamous wife on Oct 21, 1871.
In 1897, the original three-room home on the property burned down. A home was constructed soon after, though the date when the home was constructed is unknown. However, country records suggest it was constructed in 1912. In 1909, Harriet's son Albert Clarence Fisher purchased the land east of her home and built his own house. After Harriet's death in 1930, the home was given to her daughter Hattie Christina Fisher. Hattie married Alfred Christensen in 1903. Whether they lived in the home or not is not clear. In 1952, Hattie transferred the title to her daughter, Madeline Christensen. In 1986, Madeline sold the property to Donald K. and Carolyn E. Winter. In 1997, the current homeowners purchased it.
In 2002, the Harriet Hogan Fisher home was nominated to be added to the National Register of Historic Places, however, the nomination never went through. In 2022, the balcony on the second story was removed, and work around the home to improve its longevity was done.
