A Look Back: Kessler's History

  • Kessler got its own post office way back in 1862. A post office is where people send and receive mail.
  • This post office helped people in Kessler for over 50 years, closing down in 1913.
  • Besides the post office, Kessler also had a railroad station. This was important for travel and moving goods before cars were common.
  • It also had a grain elevator, which is a tall building used to store lots of grain, like corn or wheat, before it's sent to other places.
