COMMENTS:
Apparently sits on old Highway 77 about 7 or 8 miles north of Winfield. Easiest way to get there is to take K-15 about 1/2 mile west of U.S. 77 and then take 75th road south 3 miles. REMAINS: 3 or 4 occupied houses, old community building, several abandoned buildings |
I don't know too much about the history of the town but I'm guessing it faded away after the new U.S. 77 was built a mile east of town. Submitted by: Matthew Leverich |
