Saffordville, one of the thriving villages of Chase county, is a station on the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe R. R. in Toledo township, 10 miles east of Cottonwood Falls, the county seat. It is also on the Cottonwood river. It is a shipping and receiving point for a large and prosperous agricultural district. All the regular lines of mercantile activity are represented. It has a bank, telegraph and express offices, and a money order postoffice with one rural route. The population, according to the census of 1910, was 200.
There's got to be something there worth digging...it had a bank, a telegraph office...and a money order postoffice. Would love to hit that area!.
Thanks, Gypsy!
