Didn't find anything providing the source of the Streator name. "Colorado Post Offices 1859-1989" does spell it Streator not Streater as Kristina found in the DPL list. >From the timeline I would bet that this is a case of closing an existing PO and in Dec 1890 moving it a mile to the new D&RG town of Mosca when the D&RG pushed the branch line north from Alamosa to cross Poncha Pass to Salida. For what its worth D&RG route maps from the early 1880s show a proposed Alamosa and points north branch line route going east around the lakes (instead of west) thru something called "Mosca". That previously planned town was located near where the Mosca Station trading center and stage station named for the pass was.

It's not much. The Denver Public Library has this list of all cities that used to exist for a number of counties. This is the listing they have for Streater: --- Streater (Mosca) Costilla/Alamosa Post Office 1888-1890. Changed to Mosca. 1 mi N & 0.5 mi W of present Mosca. Settlement. 12, 14 Now, I read somewhere that city was renamed Mosca because of a nearby pass. My next guess would be to see if there was a large landholder in that area that may have been named Streater. Maybe they moved on and residents felt a name change was in order?
Hi Scott, I was unable to find information for a Streator - but did find it under Streater. It's not much.

Willard, 1990 This publication is a comprehensive listing of Post Offices, Stations and Branches in Colorado. It includes the sequence of counties from early county structure to present day location. As well as the inclusive dates the post office existed for specified sites, it lists name changes and where post offices moved from and to in the time periods before and after its tenure at a specific site. 14. Colorado Place Names by Arvid D. Blecha, 1987 (Manuscript) This Blecha compilation is the most complete place name works that exists for Colorado. The problem with the Blecha compilation is that it only exists in one public institution available to researchers, the Western History Department, Denver Public Library. A First Search of the Worldwide Catalog revealed no other institution where this manuscript could be found. This manuscript contains a chronological history of the counties of Colorado. It refers to many early maps and publications as a source for information contained in the manuscript. Note: At the time of publication, the Arvid D. Blecha Manuscript was used. This has now been published as Blecha's Colorado Place Names. --- Now, I read somewhere that city was renamed Mosca because of a nearby pass.
