"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

Rich Hill Insurance Calendar 1897-1965


Rich Hill Insurance Calendar 1897-1965

The Calendar says-We celebrated our 13th Birthday in 1897 and 81st in 1965 
Rich Hill Insurance 
   Security Bank Bldg.  ::   Rich Hill, Missouri  
Specializing in Truck Insurance

The top pad says:
  This Calendar ,long out of print,may seem incorrect... but here's a hint
Every year in history Has it"TIME" when dates agree.

And though 1897 is the printed date.1965 is it perfect mate.
The pad's correct you can rely on this useful calendar of days gone by.

And so we're happy to revive Lovely Lillian for 1965
It was she who made the 1890's gay
And we thought you'd enjoy her yet today

And with this sweet alluring creature
you also get another feature
Look at the pad and you can foresee
Things to come in the "next century"
