Jacob Hamblin Home

The Jacob Hamblin home is in Santa Clara just the other side of St George.
It’s a sandstone building with lovely views, built into the side of the hill.


Downstairs in the living/dining area, all the plates were turned upside down to keep the bugs and dust of them.  The chairs were turned away from the table so that you could pray before eating.

Upstairs was a large room that was used for teaching the children, weaving, prayer and dancing.


Jacob Hamblin sailed with John Wesley Powell on one of his trips down the Colorado river.

Have fun, we are!
