  BRIEF HISTORY OF VIVIN BARNEY CHAMBERLAIN Vivin was born December 16, 1919, in Annabella, Utah. She was the seventh of nine children born to James Henry and Effie Malinda Nebeker Barney. She had two older brothers, Von and Dewite, four older sisters, Lora, Elma, Hazel, Reva, and two younger sisters, Edith and Martha. Vivin had a really good home life. Her father Jim had certain rules and if they didn’t follow them, they were in for it. For instance, when they would all get up and get ready to go to church on Sunday, Jim would do the milking and chores outside with the boys’ help. The girls all pitched in and helped with the dishes. If one complained, she had to do them all. Each of the children had a chore to do and it was their turn to do it for the week - like doing supper dishes or sweeping the floor and shaking the throw rugs. Their chore had to be done before they went to bed at night so that the house would be “dying ready.” Vivin told of happy evenings with the family. Jim sat in the wooden rocker with Martha on his lap, Vivin and Edith on the rocker arms. He played the harmonica or sang and the family joined in. Hazel, Reva, Martha, Edith and Vivin all played the harmonica. Jim taught them to sing. Sometimes they played the phonograph. Effie made a big batch of popcorn or candy. Vivin’s family were faithful members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. She was baptized a member of the Church on June 2, 1928, at age eight. Vivin learned to recite when she was young. When Lora was in high school, Vivin listened to her practice readings for a dramatic arts class. Vivin could soon say them as well as Lora. Jim stood Vivin on a chair to give readings that he taught her. She gave many readings at funerals, a wedding reception, and in Fourth of July programs. One of these was “America for Me.” Later in life, she gave many readings in Relief Society programs, often with no advance notice as people knew she was good at it. Vivin attended elementary school in Annabella and high school in Monroe. Her memories of high school were not all pleasant, but she was fun to be with and had many friends. When she was running for cheerleader and they went to nominate her, everybody in the school but six kids stood up to vote for her, so they didn’t even have an election. They just put her in. Not long after Vivin’s 15th birthday, her father became very ill. After a time, a doctor sent him to Salt Lake City where he was operated on for a brain tumor, but it was so advanced, the surgery did not help. While he was in the hospital, Reva, Vivin, Edith, and Martha were home alone. Their Uncle Gene came over every evening to check on them and look after them. He had done some boxing and was a strong man. He usually just sat at the dining room table and didn’t say much as they got dinner and did their chores. One night there was a noise and a face at the window. Uncle Gene went out. Vivin said she felt sorry for whoever he caught. Jim was brought home from Salt Lake City and died a few weeks later on April 12, 1935. This was a difficult time for the Barney family. The Depression was going on and money was scarce. Vivin knew she needed to go to work. One of her first jobs was with the Forsey Ice Cream Company in Richfield where Hazel also worked. Vivin dipped the Forsey bars and watched how they were made so she could make a passable imitation in a smaller batch. She also cooked for people who made potato chips in Richfield. Another job she got was also thanks to Hazel working there first. It was at Ruby’s Inn near Bryce Canyon. (A story about this experience is in the Memories section.) Vivin wanted to go to school and become a nurse like her sister Elma. Von told her he would pay for her to go to nursing school. When he got married, his wife Grace told Vivin they would still do that, but Vivin didn’t feel right about it when he had a family of his own to support, so she didn’t go. Vivin went down to Orderville and got a job at Hattie’s Inn. (More about this is also in the Memories section.) One night at a dance, she was introduced to Roland Chamberlain. He was a good dancer, a fancy dancer, and she liked dancing with him. Vivin went home for the summer and didn’t plan to go back to Hattie’s. Hattie had a health problem and asked Vivin to come back and look after business at the Inn. Effie thought if Hattie trusted Vivin that much and needed her, she should go. Vivin’s friend, a young fellow, said, “If you go back to Orderville, you’ll marry that ____ Roland Chamberlain.” She went back. Effie had been quite weepy after Jim died and Dewite, Elma, and Reva got married. Vivin told her that if she ever got married, she would just let her mother know after it was all over. And that’s just what she did! She wrote a postcard to Effie and didn’t even tell her who she married. But she figured her mother would know because Roland had been up to Annabella to see her. He brought her up to a dance at the Kow Kounty Karnival in Richfield. They were sitting out on a quilt on the lawn with Effie, Martha, and some friends when Roland leaned over and kissed Vivin on the forehead. She got mad at him and said, “Don’t you ever kiss me in front of a group of people again!” Vivin and Roland had decided to get married in the spring. She was going to quit her job at Hattie’s and go to California to visit her aunt and uncle. One night at a dance, Roland said if Vivin went to California, he thought she wouldn’t come back and he wanted to get married. They left the dance and went to Panguitch and found the Bishop. They had to wait while he sorted the mail. As the Bishop was standing ready to perform the ceremony, Ralph Fairbanks walked in. He asked Vivin how old she was and Roland piped up, “Twenty-one and so am I.” That wasn’t quite true. They were married September 14, 1940, and Vivin turned 21 in December. Another couple went with them and said they wouldn’t tell. But when they got back to Orderville, they called friends who chivareed them. On January 31, 1942, Vivin and Roland went to the St. George Temple to receive their endowments and be sealed. World War II was going on and Roland and his younger brother Merl went to war. Roland was training for a field artillery position when a Howitzer fell or rolled on his foot and injured him. That saved him from going overseas. He spent the rest of the war in the States for rehab and recovery. Vivin and Roland bought a little house before he left for the war. The lender gave them a loan on just their signatures. By that time, they had their first son, J. R. Vivin worked while Roland was gone, sometimes taking the baby to work with her. She paid off the house while Roland was away. Merl was sent to the Pacific. Vivin wrote to him and sent a Christmas package from her and J.R. Merl appreciated it so much. It was the only package he had received. He wrote a letter from the hospital on Christmas eve to thank them. He died later that day. Roland and Vivin named their second son, Boyd Merl. Their third son was Verdell. Roland’s father had a trucking company and Roland worked for him for a while. Eventually, Roland bought his own truck and went out on his own. Sometimes Vivin went on trips with him, and drove for him when he got tired. Later, Roland bought his first semi. He told Vivin that she was legal to drive the semi with a driver’s license as long as he was in the truck with her as he owned the truck. She told him she didn’t have one. His dumbfounded reply: “Good holy moly, have you been driving all these years without a license?” “Yes.” “And you never got a ticket?” “No.” “How come?” “Oh, I just wave at the highway patrol when he passes me and he waves back.” Vivin and Roland built a new home in Orderville with extra insulation in the inside walls to keep it quieter in the bedrooms and keep the house cooler in the southern Utah heat. They raised a lovely garden of fruits and vegetables and their yard was gorgeous. Vivin appeared in Hollywood movies that were filmed nearby. She had a speaking part in ‘Noah’s Ark.” After that, they asked for her when they made “The Bionic Boy.” In that one, she danced with the star, Lee Majors. That was a highlight of her life. She had an offer to go to Hawaii and do pineapple commercials, but Roland didn’t want her to go. He was afraid she wouldn’t come home. Vivin served in the Primary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. She was on the Health and Social Welfare Board for the five counties of Kane, Iron, Washington, Garfield, and Piute. She served on the Senior Citizen five-county board as well. She went to Washington DC with a group of community and church leaders and represented the mothers in Kane County when they were talking about the Kaiparowitz Plateau. She really enjoyed the trip. Vivin and Roland planned to travel after he retired, but he got sick and they never got to go. He died February 8, 2004, in Kanab, Utah. He was buried in the Orderville cemetery. Roland had made the boys promise not to let Vivin kill herself trying to take care of the large property. Once they caught her outside the fenced yard working on the outer property. She had a witty comeback about them not saying which side of the fence she could work on. Finally, Vivin sold the house and moved to an assisted living center in South Jordan, Utah, near the Jordan River Temple. She was closer to Verdell and J.R. and enjoyed seeing them more often. When Verdell died, she missed his cheerful phone call each morning. She loved each of her boys and her grandchildren very much and was pleased with all of their successes. Vivin made her bed every morning even when she was in her nineties and could hardly walk. She died April 25, 2015 in Salt Lake City, Utah, age 95, and was buried in Orderville.
