Lehi Historical Society & Archives Thomas R. Cutler was one of the most prominent men in the early history of Lehi. He was the owner of the highly successful People's Co-op, located in the Osmond Design building on State Street at 151 E. State. In 1891, Cutler became the general manager of the Lehi Factory of the Utah & Idaho Sugar Company. He worked for the company for 28 years, although not all those years were in Lehi. He was Lehi's wealthiest citizen of the time. In 1900, he began construction of a $14,000 home on his State Street property—a home that is a near duplicate of the Jesse Knight Mansion in Provo.
