On the south edge of Greeley, Evans was named after early Colorado Governor John Evans. John Evans unfortunately was responsible for authorizing John Chivington, the local militia commander who instigated the Sand Creek Massacre, an infamous slaughter of peace-seeking Indians who had been assured of safety from US forces in 1864, only to be massacred by the First Colorado Cavalry (this was the inspiration for the slaughter in the movie Little Big Man as well as other movies and literature). Ensuing Congressional investigations left Chivington in complete disgrace and Evans with a distinct cloud. Evans would later found and serve as a trustee of Denver University.
