Cook 10 miles north of Tecumseh. The Missouri Pacifi c Railroad, surveying for a line to run through northern

Johnson County in the spring of 1887, accepted the offer of land for its right-of-way from John William Cook. Cook was founded in 1888 when the railroad was extended to that point and the town was named for Andrew Cook, the original owner of the town site. Settlers were excited about the artesian wells found in the area, some rising several feet about the surface.

Called “spouters,” these fl owing wells could be found by drilling only a short depth into the ground. Cook, referred to as the “Artesian City,” has always obtained its water from this type of well.

The 1989 Duane Carman bridge in Cook in the only covered bridge in Nebraska.

Jansen Russian settler Peter Jansesn (Jansen) and a small group of 50 fellow Mennonites left Russia in 1873 and purchased 20,000 acres from the Burlington and Missouri Railroad where they established seven settlements. With word of the

Chicago, Rock Island, and Pacifi c Railroad coming through the area, Jansen bought 80 more acres and on Aug. 20, 1886, mapped out the town. Railroad offi cials honored local rancher and politician Jansen by naming the new

town after him. Within one year, 13 businesses had been built, including a bank. Founded by Jansen, the bank has operated continuously since that time, though it has changed leaders and names.

Welcome, Treasure Hunters!The Trail of Treasures™ has brought communities together along

Highway 136, 6 & 34, 8, 50, 75, and 77 for a weekend of great bargains and good times. We hope you will discover just how rich and inviting this region can be as you search for

“Treasures” along the Trail we call Nebraska Byway 136 - Heritage Highway.

President’s Message: 2019“BORDER TO BORDER ACROSS SOUTHERN NEBRASKA”

As President of Byway 136 and Chair of Trail of Treasures, I would like to say a special thanks to all the Vendors and Advertisers listed in this Shopper Guide. Without all of you, we would not have an event called Trail of Treasures! Unfortunately, there are always those people who try to profi t from those Vendors and Advertisers that are willing to participate with paid listings. We encourage you Shoppers to stop ONLY where you see our offi cial Trail of Treasures signs – this year they will be Purple/White!!! Many hours and time goes into making this event happen so we want it to be an enjoyable experience for our shoppers! Also thank you to my co-coordinator, Bobbie Meints and our publisher people (Chris and Jen) at Courtside Marketing. Courtside Marketing (Enterprise Publishing) owns several newspapers – one of them being the Wilber Newspaper in Saline County. Saline County is a member or Byway 136. We try to promote those people who help promote us. We have “Offi cial” Professionally Printed Signs in Purple/White for all the Registered Participants and encourage the Shoppers to support ONLY the vendors displaying the Offi cial Signs and take time to say “Thank you for making Byway 136 – Trail of Treasures possible!!” We are always looking for photos and stories of any of your Trail of Treasures experiences. You can email them to [email protected] or text to 402-335-0745 or mail to P.O. Box 59, Tecumseh, Nebraska, 68450.

SEE YOU ON THE TRAIL!!!

Reynolds Reynolds is a small village located in Jefferson County. Reynolds was platted in 1880 when the Chicago, Burlington

and Quincy Railroad was extended to that point. It was named for the father of a railroad conductor on that line. William Menary and W. H. Debuse were the founders of the town. The birth of Reynolds caused the demise of “Rose Creek City” which was about two and a half miles northwest. Most of the buildings from Rose Creek City were moved to Reynolds.

Benkelman Benkelman was originally called Collinsville, in honor of Moses Collins, and under that name was founded circa

1880. In 1882, it was renamed Benkelman by the railroad for J. G. Benkelman who established one of the largest cattle shipping points next to the town. In 1895 there were 22 towns in Dundy County. Only 4 of these remain “on the map” - Benkelman, Haigler, Parks and Max. Benkelman takes great pride that the well-known actor Ward Bond was born and raised here. The Bond’s, Baney and Ham families still live in Benkelman. The town has honored Ward with

road signs identifying this as his hometown and naming the city park in his memory.

Haigler Vendors

Can yo n

Cany on

Haigler Whether traveling north on Highway 27 from Kansas or east on Highway 34 from Colorado, the fi rst town in Nebraska

is Haigler, population 230. It is the state’s “cornerstone.” The townsite was the homestead of James and Arabelle Porter,the fi rst family to settle here and who built a mercantile store.

The Burlington Railroad extended its lines from Indianola to Denver in 1881-82. The mail was dispatched at Jake Haigler’s ranch house, two miles west, so the railroad called it “Haigler’s” Station.

Haigler was platted in 1886. It was named for Jacob Haigler, the pioneer settler where the mail had been dispatched.
