Description
A DESERTED HATCH UTAH HOMESTEAD by PRISCILLA BURGERS
In 1872 the town of Aaron, also called Asay, was settled near the mouth of Asay Creek, south of Panguitch, Utah. Other early settlements in this area along the Sevier River, Asay Creek and Mammoth Creek were Proctor, Castle, Johnson, and Hatchtown. Hatchtown was settled by Meltiar Hatch Sr, a high priest of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and his two wives, Parmelia Snyder Hatch and Mary Ann Ellis Hatch. Flooding and other problems forced these early communities to group together and settle one and one-half miles south of Hatchtown. This single community then took the name of Hatch, which was incorporated on January 3, 1934. This building is typical of several old buildings in the Hatch area. The red rock formations in the background are near Bryce Canyon National Park.
