- Dan Casement
- Early 20th century Mesa County rancher. He owned the Fall Creek Ranch, in between Gateway and Uravan. He was paid to keep, board, and prep a change of horses for the Gateway-Uravan Stage/Star Postal Route. According to livestock auctioneer Howard Shults, he settled his ranch on the Unaweep in the late 1880’s, but did so only after two men he had sent to scout the area mistook the Unaweep for the Gunnison River. According to Shults, Casement always wore loud clothes. “He was just one of the old time characters and there’lll never be another one like him.” He apparently won first prize for his heifers every year for twenty-five years at the National Western Stockshow in Denver. He owned the Juanita Ranches in Manhattan, Kansas, where he had purebred horses, Holsteins, New York hogs, and purebred sheep. At one point, he served as a politician in Kansas.
