It looks like Mrs Hafen was born in Salt Lake, spent much of her life in Colorado and Provo, and died in Provo. Of course, she was raised in St George and got married there, so she would probably have identified herself as being from St George, so I guess you’re off the hook.

But even if you weren’t, what an interesting poem it would be to memorize. I didn’t notice the author’s name until after I read the poem, but every bit of it said “St George” until I got to the line about the black volcanic ash and the Rocky Mountains (what was that about??). Of course, I’ve been immersed in early St George culture recently and spent some time talking to some very helpful women at the St George DUP earlier today, so that may have influenced my reading.
