Relocate to Golden, Colorado
The name "Golden" did not come from the bright, yellow mineral, however.
The town is said to be named after Thomas Golden. As the story goes, in
1858, Tom Golden, unable to get his wagon up the canyon, stopped near the
mouth of the canyon and sold all his provisions and mining equipment to
other eager prospectors.
The first permanent settler in Golden was David Wall, who in 1858,
obtained land, laid out a 2-acre garden, and irrigated it with water from
the creek. In 1859 alone, he sold the produce of his farm to the hoards of
gold-seekers for $2,000, a fabulous sum in those days.
It was those gold strikes in the mountains that quickly turned Golden into
a well-traveled location. George Jackson discovered gold in the rocky
canyons along Clear Creek in the spring of 1858, and by the spring of
1859, thousands of pioneers passed through the Golden Valley on the way to
the mountains.
