Charles H. Bourne, engaged in farming and stock-raising in Davis, County, makes his home at Farmington, where he has a beautiful residence standing in the midst of a thirty-acre tract of land. In addition to this, he owns the excellent property, including a large tract of irrigated land and several hundred acres of pasture land. He is one of the native sons of Davis county, born February 4, 1863, his father being Charles Bourne, mentioned at length on another page of this work in connection with the sketch of his son, John A. Bourne.

Charles H. Bourne was reared and educated in Davis county, pursuing a high school course. He then took up the occupation of farming and stock raising, which he has since followed, and as the years have passed he has more and more largely extended his efforts and has hereby gained added prosperity. He is now the owner of several thousand acres of land in Utah and his possessions have been acquired through persistence and earnest labor. He was one of the first settlers of Box Elder County, making his home in Garland, and he is classed with the pioneer residents of Box Elder County, where he owns 130 acres of irrigated land and 800 acres of pasture. His property holdings in Davis county now include forty-five acres of land, all of which is under the ditch and is very choice land, yielding to him splendid crops as the result of the care and labor which he bestows upon the fields. He is a partner in the Farmington Land and Livestock Company owning a large tract of pasture in Davis county. He has greatly improved his various properties and at Farmington has a pleasant home.

In 1888, Mr. Bourne was united in marriage to Miss Sylvia Van Fleet, a native of Davis county, and to them have been born seven children: Charles W., George V., Afton, a high school graduate and the wife of Evan L. Ellison, John T. and Edith, who have passed away, Lucille, who is attending high school and has also studied music extensively, and Horton V.

Mr. Bourne is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the work of which he has been helpfully interested. He is now serving as counselor to Bishop Hess and has been president of the Young Men's Mutual Improvement Association at Farmington, having occupied that position for three terms. His political endorsement is given to the Republican Party and he has served as a member of the school board at Farmington.
