It was built as a home for Sara Kinersley, the third polygamous wife of Henry Dinwoodey, a Mormon. It is historically significant mostly for its connection to Henry Dinwoodey, owner of a very successful furniture business in Utah and the broader Intermountain region. Dinwoodey was jailed as a polygamist in the 1880s.[2]
