The next 22 black & white pictures are of Mohrland, Utah. There were a lot of us living in Hiawatha that moved there from Mohrland about 1938. These pictures were saved by Gladys Bearnson and are in the possession of Jim & Darrell her sons. They gave me permission to add them here because of the many Hiawatha connections. If you want to copy them please get permission from Jim or Darrell.
Enjoy this little piece of history.
