Details

Image Number006-876DateFall 1976DescriptionA large, modern, three-story wood-frame house with a covered porch constructed above an original log cabin built and occupied by Frederick E. Roberts in 1858. Located at 14 Alsace Way in the Cheyenne Cañon area. As the area became more settled, Roberts published a Declaration of Occupancy (a preemption claim) on 160 acres, 7 March 1863, declaring he “has a valid right to the occupation, possession, and enjoyment of this property”. Charles Carlton, cousin of Cripple Creek millionaire Albert E. Carlton, bought the ranch in 1880.
