Description First Bishop Wm. F. Rigby's second rock house. Was used for some church meetings before 1874 when the rock school house was finished. The house was supposedly cursed by a gypsy lady to the effect that he wouldn't finish the house. Later owners finished the house after he moved to the Rigby Idaho area in about 1883. Later owners include Marlow and Fran Viehweg. Located north across the street from the church.
