Homesteading in Ellis County

Emmeram

Emmeram was named after the famous church builder, Father Emmeram Kausler. The community consisted of the Sacred Heart Church and two schools. A town plot was filed with the register of deeds in 1902, but the town never materialized.

A post office was established on January 14, 1903 and closed a year and a half later on June 30, 1904.
