Honeyville church, school, store, coal dump, shed

The first church in Honeyville was what is now known as the "Tolman and Sons" building.  It served as the first church and was dedicated by Lorenzo Snow on January 5, 1879.  It served as the church until a new one was built more in the center of town.  It only served as a school for a short time as other places seem to have been used soon after.  BH Tolman bought it and remodeled it into a store in 1911.  This was not his first store, he had been operating west of the tracks in a store purchased from Benham Hunsaker.  Sometime before that he had operated with his sons as traveling merchants, and before that ran the town store, which was really part of the LDS church run co-op, out of his house.  Around 1940 (not sure of the exact date) after a new store by Mr. Johnson was built along the highway he used the old Tolman store as a coal dump.

This was likely between 1911 and 1914

This was likely between 1911 and 1914

Not sure of the time frame on this but it does appear to be more of a storage yard at this point
