Milton Faver
Milton Faver was a pioneering cattle rancher in Presidio County, Texas, the preeminent cattle baron of the Big Bend in the nineteenth century, and one of the most important individual contributors to Big Bend history. Also known in his time by the honorary title, don Melitón, he founded Cibolo Creek Ranch halfway between Marfa and Presidio, Texas in 1857. He was one of the earliest Texas trail drivers, driving his cattle to market in New Orleans in the 1850s and to other markets later.〔Poindexter, John, 2000, ''The Cibolo Creek Ranch: a brief history of the Big Bend country of Texas, a biography of the founder of the ranch, don Meliton Faver, and his times, and an account of the restoration of the ranch and its historical structures,'' 2nd ed. Houston: Southwestern Holdings, Inc.〕 Although his birthplace is not known with certainty, he was most likely born and raised in Missouri around 1822. Local lore contends that, while in his teens, he fought a duel and fled south, believing he had killed his opponent 〔
==Early Business Days==
Faver made his way to Meoqui, Chihuahua, Mexico, married Señorita Francisca Ramírez, and began a freighting business. It was a modest beginning, with a single cart of Mexican goods which he transported to and sold in Texas. He brought the cart back filled with American goods to sell in Mexico. He soon began freighting along the Chihuahua Trail and the Santa Fe Trail. As his business prospered, he opened a mercantile business in Presidio del Norte. He established regular trade with Fort Davis, the US Army cavalry post founded in 1854 in the Davis Mountains to protect the Overland Trail to California.〔〔Smith, Julia Cauble, “Faver, Milton,” ''Handbook of Texas Online'', Texas State Historical Association, (), accessed March 3, 2011.〕 Recognizing the business opportunity that Fort Davis offered, Faver acquired land on Cíbolo Creek, the site of a Cibolo Indian village before the arrival of Europeans in the area. It was likely the site of a Spanish mission to the Cibolos, Mission Santa María de las Caldas.〔Campbell, Thomas N., “Cibola Indians,” ''Handbook of Texas Online'', Texas State Historical Association, (), accessed March 3, 2011.〕〔Flores, María Eva and Julia Cauble Smith, “La Junta de los Rios,” ''Handbook of Texas Online'', Texas State Historical Association, (), accessed March 3, 2011.〕
