Below is a link to an 1895 map of Shawnee Co. Note that the UP had stations at Menoken, Silver Lake, Kingsville, Rossville, St. Marys, etc. According to my mother, there was still a depot at Kingsville in the 1920. I have no idea when it disappeared. The Menoken depot must have disappeared sometime around then also.
I note on the map that there was a stop called Sugar Works on the Rock Island east of Valencia. I had never heard of that before.
