Carl F. & Sophia Christensen House

William Frain and Ann Hill Dobson, LDS Pioneers, first owned the property where the Christiansen home currently resides. The single-cell part of the home was constructed by William and Ann using logs from the original Richmond Fort sometime in 1880. William and Ann sold the home to Carl Frederick Christensen in 1888. 

Carl Frederick Christensen immigrated to Utah in 1886 from Denmark. Between 1890 - 1910, Carl, along with his wife Karen S. Rasmussen who he married in 1892, remodeled the home. Carl was a farmer as an occupation while Karen was a dressmaker with her own shop. After their deaths in 1922 and 1926, the home was passed to Lillian Christensen, their daughter. Lillian and her husband, Thomas Ray Bell, sold the home in 1944 to Chester and Mary Tripp. After their deaths, the home was sold to George L. Stewart Jr and Barbara in 1975. They used the home as a rental from that year to 2015 when Jacob R. Gibson purchased the property, then sold it in 2018 to the current homeowners.

The Carl F. and Sophia Christiansen Home was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2004 for its "events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history." Areas of significance are agriculture/subsistence.
