More Chesterfield

This is the Old Church - built in 1895.  It reminded us of the Old White Church at Rockport.
 Do you think it was warm with only that pot bellied stove in it?
 Primary banner - for Emilee and Heather!
 Wooden Sacrament trays.
 Silver pitcher and glass cups for the water - silver tray for the bread.
 I couldn't talk Dad into taking a ride on the wagon - beautiful horses.
 Old fashioned phone!!
 School room - on the board it said:  "I will not pull Lucy's braids."
The Tithing Office - nicely restored - we had a great time learning and admiring the grit of the pioneers who settled here.  The railroad didn't come this far north and the town died!  Some people still dry farm around the area.
