RAINBOW FISHERIES

 

 
 
About 2 to 3 miles west of town was "sort of resort" named Rainbow Fisheries. It was owned by Ras Anderson. The remnants can be seen today. There were three ponds. One pond for swimming, one pond for fishing, and one pond for boating. The resort was located on the original road to Moroni. This road was located a half mile south off the road that takes you to Moroni now.  The road was moved north to avoid the marshy ground along the Sanpitch River. The area is now owned by the Leo Gillespie Family, who raise cattle.

Martha Ann Tidwell Pritchett, her husband John William Pritchett and their youngest child, Maggie.
Martha Ann was the daughter of James Harvey Tidwell and granddaughter of John Tidwell, two of the original pioneers to Mt. Pleasant.  She married John William Pritchett, son of Samuel Napoleon Bonaparte Pritchett and Mary Jane Gillespie, original pioneers to Fairvew.  These were the great grandparents of myself, Kathy Rigby Hafen.  My grandmother, Sarah was their second daughter.
