Mrs. Ruth Heaps Haun lived at 1811 East 6400 South in 1950.

The first mention that Mr. William H. Neff owned in the home was in 1952. After a personal interview
with William N. Green. William mentioned that there were two locations to Mt. Olympus Nursery. One
in Holladay and one in Murray at 1811 East 6400 South. At the Nursery in Murray they use to sale
Christmas trees every year and they also grow the trees that William Neff would use in many projects
across Utah. He was a well-known landscaping architect in Utah. Carolyn Dunn moved into the home
in the late 1960s and lived there until her death in 2019. She acquired the deed when William Neff died
in 2002. In 1987, William Neff split off the property that held the house and sold 25 acres to a
developing company. He then teamed up with them to help with the landscaping in the new Tall Oaks
Community. They built the new homes around the existing nursery trees. The trees still exist today. The
home on 1811 East 6400 South is the last standing Nursery that he had owed.
