MATFIELD GREEN

NAME: Matfield Green COUNTY: Chase ROADS: 2WD GRID: 1 CLIMATE: Mild most of the year, very hot summers BEST TIME TO VISIT: Most of the year; might want to avoid July and Aug

COMMENTS: Matfield Green is just south of Bazaar, another town on this list. It's located about 4 miles north of the turnpike at Cassoday. Picturesque, with an intriguing history (see "Prairie Erth(sic)" for a good one). REMAINS: Several houses, old school, old church, tavern, cemetery

The town began as a cattle/ranching area, but declined after the railroad decided to not build a depot in town. Submitted by: Jennifer Holtz
