Today marks Captain John Gunnison's 210th birthday. Born November 11, 1812, in Old Center Goshen, this rugged individualist attended Hopkinton Academy and taught school in a nearby log cabin before graduating from West Point in 1837. Following army service his talents as a surveyor and map make took him to the mid-west to explore the Great Lakes; thence on an expedition to the Mormon settlement in Utah where he explored the Salt Lake, studied the Mormon faith, and published a "History of the Mormons." In 1853 he was chosen to command an expedition from St. Louis through Colorado and Utah to survey and map land for the Pacific Railroad which would connect the east with the west; his tragic death by bow and arrow occurred in October of that year.

Besides out famous Gunnison Lake off Route 31, many other locations are named after one of Goshen's most notable natives, including Gunnison Island in the Great Salt Lake, the city of Gunnison, Colorado, Gunnison Reservoir in central Utah, the city of Gunnison, Utah, Gunnison National Forest, and much more.
