Colorado Cobweb Chasers

I am researching the beginnings of the now defunct town of Rocky, Park Colorado. Its been an interesting journey, that I would like to include you in if you have knowledge of, or an interest in it's history. In the years following the Colorado Gold rush at Fairplay Colorado many settlers came to live in the South Park and surrounding areas. One of the first towns between Colorado City and Fairplay was the budding town of Rocky. At first only Jefferson, Bordenville, Rocky and Florissant were recognized along the Fairplay to Colorado City path through the Tarryall area. Later the towns of Puma City [Mountiandale], and Hayman came into existence. So that in the beginning everyone living within 50 plus miles of Rocky were all known as being from there. Many exceptional family's took part in developing homesteads, successful ranches, schools, and lively little communities along this span of history. Documenting it is both daunting and invigorating, and a goal I would like to see accomplished. So if you would like to contribute. Please jump right in.
