Farmington, a village of Atchison county, is located in the central portion on the Missouri Pacific R. R., 12 miles southwest of Atchison, the county seat. It was one of the towns laid out soon after the building of the Central Branch. A school was soon built and a church was organized by Pardee Butler (q. v.) in 1867. It has a general store, blacksmith shop, money order postoffice, telegraph and express facilities, and in 1910 the population was 46.
