Civallus A. Brett
The Grand Junction News of April 14, 1883 describes him as builder of the first cabin in Mesa County after the removal of the Ute (others believe that George Hawxhurst built the first log cabin near Collbran). According to researcher David Sundal, his cabin was on River Road. He became one of the county's first commissioners. He was from Massachusetts, and his obituary in a 1921 Daily Sentinel stated that he fought in the Civil War and was a participant in the California Gold Rush.
