Newcomers were encouraged to spread out from the hub. The Heatons settled in Payson. Jonathan (Papa's father) was born there in 1857. Alvin Franklin H. in Peteetneek (Fillmore) when Johnston's Army (half of the U.S. Army in Uniform) passed through the empty Salt Lake City after negotiations and established Camp Floyd, Fairfield, for his camp followers. Again in Payson, Wilford Wild H. 1862 and Fred Walker H. 1866 were born in Payson. Of his six sons, only Christopher B. Heaton became a missionary. He served a mission to the less than 100 Moccasin Indians.  He tried to help them farm, but even after furnishing the seed, planting and getting an irrigation plan, they weren't willing to not trail off for fishing, hunting, and moving their wickiups.  Sometimes there was […] by the Indian Hill, but William […] then good relationships with the Heatons evolved from this period.

When peace was restored, Jolly brothers and others who had moved to Dixie for safetyreturend to Long VAlley and wanted their dugouts, huts, and land. Brigham Young suggested a United Order which became the largest town or Orderville. The Heatons made their last move, both Brigham Young and William Heaton died in two years, 1877.
