History
Nevadaville began with the first discovery of gold in the area in 1859. This was before Colorado became a state and the area was considered part of the western Kansas Territory. The development of Nevadaville closely parallels the growth of the Masonic Lodge, whose members were town leaders. Town meetings were held at the lodge, which is still standing today. Fires plagued the town and most residents moved out by 1900. Source: Wikipedia
