    The first settlers to file for land ownership in Barton County were John Reinecke and Henry Schultz in April, 1870 in what would become the settlement of Heizer on Walnut Creek about six miles northwest of present-day Great Bend.
    Others who came to the county in 1870 were W. C. Gibson, Gideon F. Mecklem, William Jous, Antone Wilke, George Berry and Mike Stanton, who settled along the Walnut in what are now Buffalo and Walnut townships. Most of the pioneer homes were rude dugouts and sod houses. The first log house was built late in the year 1870 by Mr. Mecklem, and was provided with loopholes and small windows as a means of defense against the Indians.
    The principal occupation of the early settlers was killing buffalo. They used the flesh and tongues for food, in some cases selling the meat at the nearest settlements, while the hides were tanned and sent to the markets in the east.
    Legibility of census records varies, depending on andwriting of census taker, quality of ink used, paper damage over the years, quality of the scanning process.
