  • DAR-Colorado-Marker-Book.Pdf
    When Ms. Charlotte McKean Hubbs became Colorado State Regent, 2009-2011, she asked that I update "A Guidebook to DAR Historic Markers in Colorado" by Hildegarde and Frank McLaughlin. This publication was revised and updated as a State Regent's project during Mrs. Donald K. Andersen, Colorado State Regent 1989-1991 from the original 1978 version of Colorado Historical Markers. Purpose of this Project was to update information and add new markers since the last publication and add the Santa Fe Trail Markers in Colorado by Mary B. and Leo E. Gamble to this publication. Assessment Forms were sent to each Chapter Historian to complete on their Chapter markers. These assessments will be used to document the condition of each site. GPS (Lat/Long) co-ordinances were to be included for future interactive mapping. Current digital photographs of markers were included where chapters participated, some markers are missing, so original photographs were used. By digitizing this publication, an on-line publication can be purchased by anyone interested in our Colorado Historical Markers and will make updating, revising and adding new markers much easier. Our hopes were to include a Website of the Colorado Historical Markers accessible on our Colorado State Society Website. I would like to thank Jackie Sopko, Arkansas Valley Chapter, Pueblo Colorado for her long hours in front of a computer screen, scanning, updating, formatting and supporting me in this project. I would also like to thank the many Colorado DAR Chapters that participated in this project. I owe them all a huge debt of gratitude for giving freely of their time to this project.

  • History of Methodism in Denver by John Alton Templin
    INTRODUCTION The Work of Dr. Metcalf As this work is undertaken, there are two research projects completed already on the history of the early Methodist Church in Colorado. In August, 1948, Dr. Kenneth E. Metcalf completed his dissertation The Beginnings of Methodism in Colorado, treating essentially, the years 1859-1863.1 Dr. Metcalf has completed a masterful task, made even more difficult by the scarcity of early records, and complete histories of the various churches. He has given new life to many men who had become little more than names in Conference Journals, and new meaning to statistics filed away and almost forgotten. Especially noteworthy was his treating of the early history of the state, that the Methodist development might be seen to unfold in its natural environment, and have coherence, as well as its true relationship to the state‟s development as a whole. Perhaps some explanation as to the specific dates which are chosen would be in order. It was on July 3, 1859, that Rev. William H. Goode preached in what is now the city of Denver.2 It is following the work of Goode and his associates, Jacob Adriance, that the Methodist Church was permanently organized in Denver. However, a Methodist service had been held several months before (in the fall of 1858) by a George W. Fisher, in cabins, saloons, or preaching in the open air.3 The Rocky Mountain Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church was organized July 10, 1863, with Bishop Edward R. Ames presiding.4 It is this most important era of Methodism with which Dr.

  • COLORADO GOVERNORS Dr. Henry A. Buchtel
    COLORADO GOVERNORS Dr. Henry A. Buchtel Scope and Content Note The Dr. Henry A. Buchtel collection comprises approximately 10 cubic feet of material and 2 microfilm rolls spanning his term from 1907-1909. Record series in the collection include the Executive Record; correspondence; extraditions and r equisitions; reports; and speeches and messages to the General Assembly. The official acts of Buchtel's administration can be documented through the Executive Record. His associations with various state agencies are documented in the correspondence and reports. Buchtel's political vision can be researched thro ugh his Inaugural Speech of 1907 and his Biennial Message of 1909. Strengths of the collection include documentation concerning State institutions, the State Board of Charities and Corrections, the railroads, and highways/good roads. Biography Dr. Henry Augustus Buchtel, Republican Governor of Colorado from 1907-1909, was born on September 3, 1847, in Akron, Ohio. Soon after his birth, the Buchtels moved to South Bend, Indiana where Henry Buchtel received a private school education and later at tended Indiana-Asbury University (now DePauw University). After working as a foreman in the grocery and pharmaceutical business, Buchtel found his calling in the Methodist Ministry. Buchtel reentered his alma mater to study theology and graduated with a M aster's Degree and Phi Beta Kappa Honors. After graduation Buchtel and his new bride, Mary Nelson Stevenson, traveled on a mission to Rustchuck, Bulgaria in 1873. His wife soon developed both typhus and tuberculosis, however, which forced them to return t o the United States early. After establishing himself as a notable Methodist pastor in other states, Buchtel took his place behind the altar of Denver's Evans Chapel in 1886.

  • Past and Present
    University of Denver • Land Use Plan Update I University of Denver - Past and Present Historic Development Since being granted a charter in 1864, the University of Denver has been active in shaping the civic landscape in several areas of the City. Even today, DU’s infl uence extends beyond the perceived boundaries of High Street and University Boulevard. Th e sale of the Park Hill Campus and the resulting need to consolidate Law and Music programs on to the University Park campus is a recent notable step in the history of DU’s campus development. Th e Colorado Seminary (left) and John Evans’ House, Th e University Park campus in an early stage of circa 1863. development. New trees planted by the University are also visible. Allen D. Breck’s book From the Rockies to the World is the most comprehensive and current recording of DU’s history. Information from this book has been invaluable in educating the land use planning team on the interconnected relationship the University of Denver has maintained with the community through the years. Th e following text, paraphrased from Allen Breck, points out some of the key milestones in the campus history. On a Sunday aft ernoon in October 1863, a large, fi ne-toned bell rang for the fi rst time atop a grand new three-story academic building at 14th and Arapahoe Streets, marking the beginning of John Evans’ academic legacy in Denver.
