History in
a Pecan Shell
The settlement
was named to honor A. P. Balch, a director of the Atchison, Topeka
and Santa Fe Railway railroad. Settlement never materialized although
the railroad stop became a popular shipping point for area farmers.
The only signs of civilization today are a few vacant buildings and
the towering grain elevator. |
