All of the men left in November 1858, except for Plumb who was a schoolteacher and was required to teach until the end of December. The group formed the Union District on December 15, 1860. Bound by St. Vrain and Left Hand Creek on the north, John Corbin's land claim on the east, the Kansas and Nebraska Base-line on the south, and James Barker's land claim on the west. (328-143-26)
