George Goates Farm

George Goates Farm
(1864-1939)

During the 1918 flu pandemic, George Goates (1864-1939) was unable to harvest his sugar beets when his son and three grandchildren tragically died. After building coffins and burying them, he returned to his fields. George discovered, to his great relief, many Lehi men had worked together to harvest his crop, extending a helping hand in his darkest hour.
