Higbee, John Mount (1827-1908)

The Florence Spilsbury Higbee Collection contains documentation from Myron Franklin Higbee's grandfather about the Mountain Meadow Massacre. It includes a hand written testimony of the event given to his children, court papers from prosecution due to involvement in the massacre, and correspondence with Juanita Brooks about Higbee's account of the massacre. Another important document is the last written testimony of Oliver Cowdrey given to Samuel W. Richards.

The Sherman Haight Collections contains family records. Included are over fifty photographs of both family members and community events, memorabilia for the Haight and Higbee families and their activities up to 1944. Of special interest is information on the Cedar City Chautauqua and World War II ration books for 1944.
