<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I am from Wichita, which is near but far. I also have friends and relatives that live in that area.<br /><br />I would suggest that you start with the Ford County Historical Society Dodge City Kansas. Their web page is - <a target="_blank" href="http://www.kansashistory.us/fordco/">http://www.kansashistory.us/fordco/</a><br />Then I would also check with the local newspaper, the Dodge City Daily Globe - <a target="_blank" href="http://www.dodgeglobe.com/">http://www.dodgeglobe.com/</a><br />That is about the best I can suggest on short notice. <div class="pta-link-card answers-template-image type-default"> <div class="pta-link-card-picture"> </div> <div class="pta-link-card-content"> <p class="pta-link-card-title"> <a target="blank" href="http://www.kansashistory.us/fordco/">Ford County (KS) Historical Soc., Dodge City, Kansas, Old Dodge City history: Mueller-Schmidt...</a> </p> <p class="pta-link-card-description">History of Ford County, Kansas and Dodge City, Kansas</p> </div> <div class="clearfix"></div> </div>
