Abstract

The land was bought from the Pottawatomie Indians by the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Railroad and sold to German immigrants for a profit. The township of Newbury was established in 1868, and the town bearing the same name followed soon after. The towns history follows a series of disappointments of poor water source, lost county seat, and the railroad bypassing them. The Catholic Church remains in service to the rural area.
