It first made its appearance on our history books through the building of the Pine Grove Post Office by none other than Alfred Butlers in 1862. Two great years after, the town expanded and grew to the now known Parker, Colorado. Of course, there were early settlers in the town, and they mostly comprised of Native Americans – Cheyenne, Arapaho, and Ute. However, Parker reached its peak of popularity when gold was discovered in its boundaries during the late 1850’s. Therefore, people started crowding and settling in Parker and became known as Pine Grove. The town got its name from James Parker who was the main contributor to the expansion of the town.
