History

The town of Mace's Hole was settled in 1862. The town was named for Juan Mace, a bandit who used the valley for a hideout. The Mace's Hole Post Office opened on April 23, 1873.cite book | last = Bauer | first = William H. | coauthors = James L. Ozment, John H. Willard | title = Colorado Post Offices 1859-1989 | publisher = The Colorado Railroad Museum | date = 1990 | loc = 90-34759 | id = ISBN 0-918654-42-4 ] A local preacher took umbrage at the town's name and suggested the biblical name Beulah as a more wholesome alternative. The name of the town was changed to Beulah on October 25, 1876.
