Brigham Pond, born June 9, 1853. He and his wife, Aroetta Whittle Pond and their young son, Charles, came to Lewiston in the spring of 1877. Brigham and his brother, Louis, bought eighty acres of land from John M. Bernhisel for $6 per acre, and 80 acres from Robert Wall.

Brigham Pond was twice married. His first wife had a large family. His second wife, Catherine Whittle Pond, was married to Brigham in 1885.
