Wallsburg, Utah
Standing in the center of Wallsburg village is the 115-year-old Ford Merchantile Store. Although it is no longer open for business, it was the hub of commercial activity during four generations. The store represents the essence of Wallsburg--faith, commitment and service. Inside is the original telephone that was installed in 1897, that provided townspeople with a connection with the outside world before radio or television. In the back corner stands the barred-window that served as Wallsburg's first post office.
W. Dee Halverson became familiar with the beginnings of this unique village in Round Valley while writing the biography of it's founder, William Madison Wall, in 1991. Commissioned in 2005 to write a history of the community, Heritage Associates has watched it awaken from a sleepy little farm town to a coveted address. Newcomers and visitors are fascinated by this photo-rich chronicle of "A Valley of Dreams."
