In 1902, Harrison and Charlotte Fritser settled on the South Fork of the Salmon River, raising their family until Charlotte’s death due to childbirth in 1919. The story of the Fritser family–one of survival, tragedy, and success–is worth telling.

A native Idahoan, Kathy Deinhardt Hill enjoys uncovering the stories about Idaho’s early residents. She is the author of several books, including Spirits of the Salmon River, For Better or Worse, the Legacy of William “Deadshot” Reed, and Hanged, a History of Idaho’s Executions.
