Pioneer families honored by Finney County Historical Society
The Finney County Historical Society honored Roxanna Goss and Charles and Frances Pfeifer as Pioneer families at its annual meeting and banquet in Garden City. The Pfeifers moved their home to Garden City in 1946 and farmed in Holcomb, now in their fourth generation. The Goss family settled in Garden City area in 1916 and remains active in dairy and pork, 4-H and local church work. The event highlighted 168 years of combined Finney County presence and will feature a Pioneer display at the Finney County Museum for about a year. The society also elected a new board, with several members returning and a handful new directors installed.
