Reflections on Southwest Kansas Scott & Marsh Ranch
Barbara Oringderff recounts the Scott & Marsh Ranch saga in Finney County from 1886 to the early 1900s, noting eight to ten year-round workers and a rotating summer crew. Foremen Gay and Hub Ecton, Austin Parson, and Shorty Holmes shaped a bachelor outfit with square dances, fiddles, and social life.
