Atchison County Directories
North Missouri and Eastern Kansas Business Directory for 1867-1868
Atchison.
The County Seat of Atchison county is situated on the west bank of the
Missouri river, 40 miles in a direct
line, but considerable more by river,
above the mouth of the Kansas river,
and 16 miles above Ivcaven worth and
15 miles below St. Joseph; it is situated at the eastern terminus of the
Atchison and Pikes Peak R. R., on
an extensive bend of the Missouri river, which it makes toward the west,
bringing this place farther west than
any other important place in the State
on the river. The country back is
very good and has a rich soil and is
well cultivated. The railroad west is
completed out as far as Nemaha
county, and will soon reach the Little
Blue, which will open a very fine trade
to this already enterprising town. Population about 5,000.

This is a small but flourishing town
on the Atchison and Pike's Peak R.
R., almost exactly in the centre of the
County. It is 14 miles west of Atchison
on the head waters of the Stranger creek, and its location is beautiful
and picturesque in the extreme, surrounded on all sides with streams and
woodlands, and soil not exceeded in
fruitfulness by any in the State. It
has inducements for the consideration
of settlers unqual to any locality within the borders of this or any other
State. Locations of the beautiful and
rich lands in its vicinity can be yet
had on very moderate terms from
speculators and others, and these at
once in the midst of all the temporal
and social conveniences of the East.
Within town are two churches, a Lutheran and Methodist
school house, with
almost constant free school, and the
prospect of a higher grade.
