     The East, the West, the North and the South, and almost every foreign clime

in the civilized world has contributed to the settlement and development of

Colorado.  But J.B. Nolan, of Mesa county, living in the Whitewater section,

twenty-four miles southeast of Grand Junction, is wholly a product of the state.

 He was born in the San Luis valley in 1877, was reared on the parental

homestead in that portion of the state, was educated in the district schools

near his home, and since leaving school has employed his energies in developing

the resources of the state, and improving the condition of her business

interests and promoting her general welfare.  He passed his childhood and youth

in the section of his nativity, attending school when he could, and as soon as

he was able working on farms near his home.  In 1902 he was married to Miss

Effie Gill, and they have one child, their son George E.  After his marriage Mr.

Nolan settled on the place he and his family now occupy, twenty-four miles

southeast of Grand Junction, Mesa county, where he carries on a stock and

farming business of good size and gratifying profits.  This he conducted with

care and vigor, devoting to it all his time and energy and winning the rewards

of his toil and attention which he assuredly earns.  Having cast his lot in this

section of the state, he is earnestly interested in its welfare and like other

good citizens aids in promoting all good enterprises tending to this end, giving

them active and intelligent support.
