"About This Blog
Rich Hill is a small town in Bates County, Missouri, known as the "Town That Coal Built." Since 2008, this blog has been digging through old newspapers, county histories, family photos, and community memories to piece together the stories of the people, businesses, churches, and events that shaped Rich Hill — from its coal-mining boom years to the present day.
Here you'll find everything from town-defining moments (train depot ambushes, natural gas jubilees, the founding of local churches) to the quieter stories of the people who called Rich Hill home — including a few who went on to leave their mark on the wider world.
Have an old photo, a family story, or a correction? I'd love to hear from you — reach out at beardonme@gmail.com

Photo Help-George Washington Webb
I saw your blog on Rich Hill, so I thought you might be able to help with this photo. It says it was taken at the Corner Gallery in Rich Hill MO. I would like out if you may know when it was taken and if you know ho Van Voorhis was? I believe the photo is George Washington Webb and his future wife Rosa Maud Speece. Thanks
