Paul Johnson Fletcher is the son of Francis Eugene and Edith Johnson Fletcher of Salt Lake City. He was born 6 Nov 1914 in Salt Lake City. He graduated from East High School in 1932. In 1933 when the Civilian Conservation Corp was started, Paul enlisted and was sent to the Ferron Camp F-II in 1933. The CCC camp was through the hay field from the home that Naone grew up in, and the young men that were gathered there spent every Sunday evening at her home, singing songs, playing games and eating. This helped them have a home away from home.
Paul was with the Ferron camp until 1935 when he left to become a typewriter serviceman for his brother in Boise, Idaho.
Paul and Naone were married 10 August 1936 in the Salt Lake LDS Temple, and they lived for a few years in Salt Lake City. Paul worked for the Royal Typewriter Company as a serviceman.
During World War II the Fletchers moved to Washington State. Paul worked at Hanford Engineering Works (the plant that built the Atomic Bomb) and lived at Richland.
In 1946, after the war was over, the family returned to Utah and built a home in Ferron, north of the George Huntsman home at 245 South State Street. They had four children, Bonnie, David, Michael and Robert.
During this time Paul was a contractor and builder and it was hard to find that type of work in Emery County so Paul's workdays were spent in Salt Lake City and Carbon County. Winter months were hard when it became cold and there was no work.
A decision was made for Paul to change professions. He studied and became an Electronic Technician, concentrating on televisions.
In 1958 Paul went to work at Hill Air Force Base near Ogden. The family moved to Layton where they lived until Naone went to a care center and passed it on to their children.
Paul was active in the Lions Club and other Civic and Air Force Organizations. During his years at Hill, Paul worked in the Missile Division and Also Aircraft Radar. He spent time in South Dakota, Montana, Florida, Vietnam, Thailand and Spain. He retired in 1979 with 21 years of service, and he passed away 9 June 1986.
