Eliza Araminta Becksteadand Orson Pratt Lee
One of the most very special features at the Relic Home is the Display of carvings done by Orson Pratt Lee. In this display there is a prairie schooner with oxen and pioneers at the side animals and also Indians that he handcarved. But there is also a chain of wood that he has carved out with no seams. It is approximately 20 feet long. He was a very talented fellow.
The Daughters of Utah Pioneers Museum also holds such a carving display by Orson Pratt Lee.
We did some research on him and this is what we found.
After he married, he moved to Marysvale. We certainly appreciate the carving display that was given to the Mt. Pleasant Historical Association in 1924.
His obituary follows:
