6/7 History Notes
Hugoton: Settlers from McPherson, Kansas established a settlement in what was then west-central Seward County, Kansas in 1885. They originally named this settlement Hugo in honor of French writer Victor Hugo, but then changed its name to Hugoton to distinguish it from Hugo, Colorado.
Moscow: Formerly called New Moscow; successor of another Moscow eight miles south and moved her in 1913 to be on the railroad.
Haskell County is believed to be the origin of the 1918 Spanish Flu pandemic that infected 500 million people and killed 50 to 100 million worldwide.
Satanta: pop: 1,273 The town was established in 1912. The Railroad named it after the Kiowa Chief, Satanta, one of the signers of the Medicine Lodge Peace Treaty. There was such a negative reaction from naming a town after an Indian that it was the last town the Railroad agreed to name. See the wooden statue of Chief Satanta in front of the Satanta City Library and the permanent teepee in its park on US 56. Streets carry the names of Indian Tribes.

6/8 History Notes
Sublette: pop: 1,453Named for William Lewis Sublette, a French Huguenot who was a partner in the Rocky Mountain Fur Company. An election in 1913 made Sublette the county seat. It was the first county election where Kansas women were allowed to vote. Sublette is the County seat of Haskell County. Many of the town’s streets are named after explorers, such as Zebulon Pike and Kit Carson.
Haskell County Historical Museum: N Fairgrounds in Sublette.
Gray County Wind Farm: Visitor’s kiosk is on the north side of US HWY 56, just east of Montezuma. The Gray County Wind Farm is the largest wind farm in Kansas.
Montezuma: pop: 966Stauth Memorial Museum: 111 N Aztec. The museum hosts traveling exhibits from the Smithsonian Institute and is home to other artifacts, art, and wildlife collections.
Ford County was named after Col. James Hobart Ford who was in charge of the construction of Ft. Dodge.
Dodge City: pop: 27,340Founded in 1872, near Fort Dodge, the town became the center for travelers and buffalo hunters. As the longhorn cattle started arriving from Texas, the city got its wild, cowtown reputation. Bat Masterson and Wyatt Earp fought to bring law and order to the town. Boot Hill Cemetery was necessary as shootouts were commonly used to settle differences. Boot Hill Museum and Historic Dodge City on Front Street. The historic exhibits show the life and times of Dodge City.
Spearville: pop: 802 In 1873, the Santa Fe to the Arkansas Valley Town Company bought the land and named the township after the railroad direc-tor, Alden H. Speare. However, the town got its start after two men from Chicago came out at night by train, and were “dropped in the prairie like a cat in a bag.” When daylight came, they liked what they saw and contacted the AT&SFRR Company wanting to purchase the town site. The deal went through on Dec. 6th 1877.

6/9 History Notes
Kinsley: pop: 1,425 (county seat) This “Midwest City” is halfway between New York and San Francisco. It is 1,561 miles to each city. Roadside Park is located where US 50 and 56 join. There you will find the Edwards County museum, an old church, a sod house, and the AT&SF steam locomotive #3424.
Larned: pop: 4,054 (county seat) The city shares its name with the nearby Fort Larned, that operated from 1859 to 1878.
Pawnee Rock: pop: 249 Pawnee Rock State Historic Site (NRHP): Located One-half mile off US 56 and the town of Pawnee Rock. American Indians used the Rock as an observation point to look for herds of buffalo as well as the wagons coming along the Santa Fe Trail. Some travelers believed this spot to be the most dangerous along the Trail, while others saw the rock as a welcomed sight, as it signified that half of their journey was behind them.
Great Bend: pop: 15,923 Named for its location at the “great bend” of the Arkansas River, the town was incorporated around 1872. It was a shipping hub for cattle and the town grew into a rowdy cow town for a while.
Ellinwood: pop: 2,120 Founded in the 1870s by German immigrants, the town had a two-block business district. However, below ground, there was another set of stores and businesses, connected by underground walkways. At one time, it included 11 saloons. Coal bins for the businesses lined the walkways, and the sidewalks above ground, would be pried open on days the coal was delivered. As natural gas replaced coal, the town started shrinking and the underground businesses closed. Ellinwood’s Underground Tunnels at the Dick Building: located on the NW corner of Main and Santa Fe, (US 56 at the stoplight). Walk through passageways to three of “yesterday’s underground shops” and hear how prohibition affected Ellinwood and its “Little German” reputation.

Wednesday, June 11 Route Guide6/11 History Notes Abilene: pop: 6,844 At the end of the Chisholm Trail, Abilene grew into a wild cow town, once marshaled by Wild Bill Hickok. It is the childhood hometown of the 34th U.S. President, Dwight D. Eisenhower.
Junction City: pop: 25,817 The town was a delivery point along the Kansas River. However, the river got too low and the steamboat, Hartford, carrying more immigrants, got stuck about 20 miles east. As a result, a new town was formed, in what is present day, Manhattan.
Riley County: Fort Riley, a US Army Installation, is located along the Kansas River between Junction City and Manhattan. It was established in 1853 to protect people traveling along the Oregon, California, and Santa Fe Trails. George Custer was stationed here.
Manhattan: pop: 56,069 Home of Kansas State University. Also known as the Little Apple, this land was opened up to new settlers by the Kansas-Nebraska Act in 1854. It was officially incorporated in 1857. Visit the Flint Hills Discovery Center at 315 S 3rd St.
Zeandale: pop: 60 J.H. Pillsbury founded the town in 1855. It is said that he named the town after the Greek word, zea, meaning “corn” and the English word, “dale.”
Wabaunsee: (unincorporated) Wabaunsee was anti-slavery and became part of the Underground Railroad in 1856. Henry Ward Beecher supplied rifles for the men to defend themselves. The rifles were smuggled through pro-slavery areas in boxes labeled “Beecher’s Bibles.” Beecher Bible and Rifle Church: (NRHP) Located 0.3 miles south of K-18 on Elm and Chapel. Established by Free State Sympathizers in 1857, the church still holds services.
Wamego: pop: 4,485 The town was founded in 1866.Schonhoff Dutch Mill: Located in the city park. Built in 1879, by a Dutch immigrant, to aid farmers who were still grinding wheat and corn by hand.

6/12 History Notes
St. Marys: pop: 2,656 In 1848, the Pottawatomie first arrived in the area, they were given 30 square miles of land along the Kansas River. They set up a mission and a church, which served as a resting place for those traveling along the Oregon Trail. It was incorporated as a city in 1869. With that, came the formation of the public school system, and the grounds that had held the mission school became St. Mary’s College.
Ozawkie: Named for a Sac Indian chief. Translation given to the name is “yellow earth.”
Oskaloosa: pop: 1,096 The town’s newspaper, Oskaloosa Independent, began publishing July 11th, 1860, and the masthead proudly states: “Six Months Older Than the State of Kansas.”

6/14 History Notes
Old Jefferson Town: Located on highway 59 outside Oskaloosa. The buildings have origins from around Jefferson County, and were relocated, giving a neat view of how early settlers once lived.
Muscotah: pop: 175 Named for the Kickapoo Native American word for “prairie,” it was founded in 1857. The town was originally settled two and a half miles northeast of its current location. However, when the founders learned that the Union Pacific Railroad would be just south, they relocated the town on the railroad line near the river.
Brown County was organized in 1855 and named after Albert G. Browne, of Mississippi, who had been Senator and member of the House of Representatives from that state. The name is properly spelled with an “e” in the original statute, but on the county seal, the “e” was left off—accidentally, probably. All later statues present the name without the final “e.” The Kickapoo Nation Indian Reservation in Brown County is the second largest Indian reservation in Kansas.
Horton: pop. 1,883Post Office Murals (NRHP): 825 1st Avenue. Kenneth Evett is the artist for two pieces of Section artwork installed in 1939.
Hiawatha: pop: 3,133 Nicknamed the “City of Beautiful Maples” the town was founded in 1857. It was named after Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s poem, The Song of Hiawatha. There is a method to their street names. Main street, (Oregon Street), was named after the Oregon Trail. East-west streets that are north of Oregon Street are named after Indian Tribes who lived north of the Oregon Trail and those that lived south are south of Oregon Street.
Davis Memorial: (NRHP) A monument in the Mount Hope Ceme-tery, it was built by John Milburn Davis to honor his late wife, Sarah. It cost approximately $200,000, which brought great criticism of Davis’ spending during the Great Depression.
City Clock: 701 Oregon Street: Built in 1891 as part of a bank, it is the only clock of its kind between Denver and Indianapolis on U.S. Route 36.

HighlandHistory Notes
White Cloud: pop: 175 Founded in 1857, the town prospered from the steamboat traffic on the Missouri River. It is the seat of government for the Iowa Tribe of Kansas and Nebraska and is named after James White Cloud, the son of Chief White Cloud of the Iowa people. The entire downtown district of White Cloud is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Highland: pop: 1,010 The town began with the Iowa, Sac, and Fox Indian Mission, which was established in 1827 by Father Samuel Irvin, a Presbyterian missionary from Pennsylvania. With him, he brought the first printing press to Kansas. About 1/4 mile off of 240th Road, a portion of the original Indian Mission still stands. Highland Community College, 602 W Main Street: Built in 1858, Irvin Hall was the first building on campus and has been in use ever since, making it the oldest college in Kansas.
Special thanks to City of Highland and Highland Community College for providing the venue, bottled water, picnic tables, and hospitality for the Biking Across Kansas celebration picnic.
