Question: Which community was formed by the merger of a Mormon settlement and a nearby sawmill town?

Answer: Heber-Overgaard. Heber’s name may trace back to either Heber J. Grant or Heber C. Kimball, both prominent figures in the Mormon Church. Overgaard emerged nearby around 1936, named after Kristen Kristensen “Chris” Overgaard, who established the area’s first sawmill.
