Looking for David Salazar and family in Denver Colorado Area

joanne0502 — 2012-07-15 18:24:33Z

Looking for David Salazar and family in Denver Colorado area. My daughter Katie Parker, had my grandson, David Joseph Parker, on 3/1/2005. Katie listed David Salazar as the father. (David Salazar, I'm guessing is somewhere between 35-40?) Would like to connect to my grandson David's extended family. (This is *NOT* a request for child support !!) My only motive is to allow my David to know that he has extended family, and to know if my David ever had a medical emergency, that I'm in contact with blood relatives. I'm sure there is another grandmother out there that would love to know him. :) Plus I would like to compile my David's family tree for him. We are currently not in Colorado, but do make trips back to see family regularly.

They had a son that died at a very early age - possibley an infant. His name was either James Roy or Roy James because he was named after Leslie's brother. I think they were living in Bristol colorado where their other son was born in 1922 - Ralph E Hamm. Does anyone know where to find these records?

I am looking for help finding a birth record for my biological grandpa. His name is Harry Owen Clark, born January 24, 1936. His mothers name was May B. Ustick, I cannot find his fathers name ANYWHERE. May still was living with her parents in the 1930 census, so I am hoping maybe I will get some info with the 1940 census comes out. But I am still hoping to find the birth record for him. I would very much appreciate if anyone has any helpful information, or what else I can do to find this info.

Thank you,

Bruce Hanna descendants

Randy_Hanna — 2009-03-26 13:13:49Z

I have right now is a box of Super 8 Movies, Reel to Reel. Some of the reels are in metal cases, and others are still in the boxes. And on those boxes is Bruce Hanna; 740 S. Lincoln; Littleton Colorado.

Most everything is labeled, and they include a 1953-54 Car Trip, a 1955 trip to Las Vegas, a 1956 trip to California (several of those), Yellowstone and Niagra Falls, San Francisco, plus more. One even says Airplanes.

Then there is one that says Boy Randy, Baby Barb and another that simply says Yellowstone Randy Barbara. So those must have been their two children. Since those were in the 50's, these children would now be in their 50's.
I was SO hoping you could help me locate these people so I can give them these wonderful films.

History of the Division of Youth Corrections
Early Years

State supported residential services for delinquent children in Colorado date back to the late 19th century. In fact, the State Industrial School For Boys was established in 1881 and administered by a State Board of Control. The first school Superintendent was W. C. Sampson who served from January 5, 1881 to April 15, 1889. The following excerpt taken from the Biennial Report of the State Industrial School for Boys 1903-1904 provides a description of this early residential program for boys: "A splendid flag pole has been erected. Gymnasium apparatus has been purchased. Night men have been put in all the dormitories. Some machinery has been installed in the woodworking department. A small barn has been built for the thoroughbred cattle. Much new fence has been built and painted. The campus has been enlarged. Trees have been set out about the grounds and swimming pool. The exhibit of work from the Industrial School captured first prize and a diploma at the State Fair at Pueblo, in 1903, and our exhibit at the World’s Fair has been awarded a gold medal, besides eliciting letters containing words of praise from educators on both sides of the Atlantic." A residential program for delinquent girls was opened 13 years after the establishment of the State Industrial School For Boys. According to the following history written in 1969 by the Director of Mount View Girl’s School, Betty Portner (a position she held for over 30 years), the school for girls was relocated on several occasions in its early years of operation: "The State Home & Industrial School for Girls was opened on October 1, 1894, in Denver. The Home was state supported, but at this time, and for a number of years thereafter, all of the counties were required to pay 50 cents per day per student. At the time of the opening, it housed 37 girls, by the end of 1896, it was fast outgrowing facilities, and early in 1899, the school was relocated in Aurora, just east of Denver. It then consisted of five rented cottages. However, the lease on this property expired in March, 1900, and after several months of negotiations, the State obtained a contract to purchase 40 acres South and West of Denver, three miles west of Fort Logan. On August 2, 1900, 36 girls and six officers moved into the home purchased at the present site of the school (currently MVYSC). In 1919, and again in 1947, the State was able to acquire two adjacent tracts, each of which amounted to ten acres, making the total holdings of the State of Colorado for the Girl’s School 60 acres". In the early 1900s, the total number of boys and girls being held in both of these facilities was less than 300. In contrast, Division of Youth Correction's residential programs had an average daily population of 973 youth throughout Colorado and in some out-of-state placements during fiscal year 1997-98. Creation of the Division of Youth Services It was not until 1959 that the Division of Youth Services (DYS) was established by the Legislature as a Division within the Department of Institutions. At the time of its creation, the DYS was responsible for the administration of three residential programs: the State Children’s Home (a placement for dependent and neglect infants, children and youth in southeast Denver); the State Industrial School for Boys (currently Lookout Mountain Youth Services Center in Golden); and the State Industrial School for Girls (currently Mount View Youth Services Center in southwest Denver). DYS was also responsible for administration of the Division of Juvenile Parole. However, administration of juvenile detention during this period was still the responsibility of the State Department of Judicial. When the State Children’s Home was closed in fiscal year 1971, the children were placed in numerous "group homes" throughout the Denver metropolitan area. Those homes were phased out over time as the children were either adopted or were emancipated at 18 years of age.

kevinewest — 2008-01-29 18:22:56Z

I wrote to Colorado many times. Finally I got to the department that has taken over the Division of Youth Corrections (DYC...used to be Division of Youth Services). What they said was this. “DYC destroys master files and medical records by the time a youth is 28. If you are looking for adoption records, you may put that request in writing with as much identifying information that you have and we can see if we have anything there to verify. All of these records are considered confidential and are covered by confidentiality laws which require releases of information and/or court orders.

It was a juvenile detention camp (boot camp) and state orphanage. Parents would send unruly boys there or just boys that they could not take care of, unruly or not.

My GreatGrandfather is a student in the 1900 School Census, he is William Carey. I have also tried to get access to these records and have had no luck. I did go to the website mentioned and it helped me a lot to know what kind of boys were sent there. If someone would like to work with me to see if we could get some kind of answer on them lifting the limits on access to these 1900 records. I would be willing to work with them to see what we could do. Maybe they would let us look at them because they are over 100 years old. Please e-mail me at bcastle@ptialaska.net, my name is Tina

zinablue — 2008-01-28 21:52:17Z

My GreatGrandfather William Carey is listed in this Industrial School 1900 Census. I also tried to get the records years ago and they said that the records were private. It seems like there should be some sort of time limit on access to these records. My ancestor is also listing in another county with some Carey's (not his parents), as adopted, away at school. I would love to know why these boys were at this type of school, was it because they were troubled kids or where they part native. How long did they usually stay there, how did they find out about this type of school to even have to go there was it some type of government things. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. Thank you, good luck.
