Homesteading in Harper County
Bluff City
The town site was platted on November
20, 1886, and by the end of December, there were 200 families
in residence. The railroad built a roundhouse and shops which
later were moved to Anthony. Once the Cherokee Strip opened and
the buildings were moved, the town's decline was imminent.
The ethnicity of its settlers is unknown.
