| Info | First provisional Mayor of Denver.
John C. Moore served as the first provisional Mayor of Denver from 1859 to 1861. During this time, the City of Denver was still considered a part of the Jefferson Territory, the unincorporated land bearing the name of our third President, Thomas Jefferson. The city owes its name to the former Kansas Territorial Governor, James W. Denver. During these gold rush years, the Moore Administration managed to maintain order, decrease mob violence and improve the physical infrastructure of the city, including building bridges.
