JOHN SWIFT VANDERLIP

John Vanderlip was born April 5, 1836 in Bennington County, Vermont and died February 3, 1905 in Denver Colorado. He was the son of William Vanderlip who was born in Europe, possibly Holland and died in the fall of 1785 in Canada. John Vanderlip married Mary Elizabeth Vise , the daughter of Aaron Vise (1818 - ~) and Lucinda Mason (1823 - ~) on January 12, 1860 in Missouri. She was born March 11, 1841 in Page County, Iowa, and died April 13, 1919 in Denver, Colorado.

John Swift Vanderlip, one of the pioneers of Denver and Colorado, was taken from Vermont by his parents when quite young to Buffalo, NY. When he had reached the age of 16 his parents moved to Detroit and he started out to do for himself, going first to Mississippi where he worked as a raftsman, riverhand and wood cutter for three years. He went then to southwestern Iowa where he was engaged in farming and cattle raising for two years. Soon after his marriage he made his first trip to Denver as a freighter, and this trip being successful, he determined to follow it up, making in all seventeen trips across the plains behind mule teams, and having many exciting adventures. On his last trip, which was during an Indian disturbance, he took his family with him, having previously purchased what is known as Sand Creek Place, five miles north of Denver, where he kept a road house and toll road which he built across the creek. This was the route of all passenger and freight traffic into Denver until the Union Pacific railroad was built. After a few years he sold the toll road to the county, disposed of the hotel, and moved to a ranch on the west side of the Platte, near what is known as Henderson's Island. The year following he took up a homestead on Sand Creek, above where the Union Pacific makes its crossing, and after gaining title to this place he moved to Denver in 1873, purchasing what was called the old ames soap factory, now 23rd and Lorimer streets. At this time it was outside the city limits. He kept a grocery store for a time, but went back to farming and cattle raising for several years. He then returned to Denver and bought land with such good judgement that he saw the city grow up around his property, and his estate at his death was valued at several hundred thousand dollars.
