This Victorian style house was probably built c. 1889 for Caroline Carr Armstrong, a widow who, with her six children, had come to Utah from Australia the previous year. Caroline was born in Kent, England, in 1840, but at a young age she immigrated to Australia where she joined the LDS Church in 1871. Her husband, William, apparently died just prior to her coming to Utah. Mrs. Armstrong passed away in this house in 1903.
