| Redick Allred House, c. 1875 115 South 100 East |
|
|
|
| Allred, an 1859 Spring Town settler and handcart company
rescuer, built this Greek Revival-inspired one and one half
story oolitic limestone house in the mid 1870s. Originally
a hall-parlor plan the main entrance would have been on
the west façade. The mason was Jens “Rock” Sorensen, a
Dane. Redick Allred, born in Tennessee, was an officer in
the Nauvoo Legion and the Mormon Battalion. He married
Lucy Holt and Amelia Jane McFerson, and had 19 children.
In 1880, Isaac Allred, a druggist and self-taught dentist,
bought the house. Lester Allred purchased the home in
1937, and sold it in 1939 to Earl and Lorna Jensen. The
house was purchased and restored in 1996 by Sara Allred
Watson.
