Kingman

Built around a station on the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway, Kingman in south-central Kansas grew into the seat of Kingman County. The town lies beside the South Fork Ninnescah River, amid broad agricultural plains west of Wichita. Its commercial center and courthouse reflect the practical role of a Kansas county seat, while the surrounding country forms part of the historic Chisholm Trail corridor, once used for northbound cattle drives. Kingman was named for Samuel A. Kingman, a chief justice of the Kansas Supreme Court, linking the town to the state’s early legal history.
