MAIZE, KANSAS: HISTORY AND FUN FACTS

The area around Maize was first settled by J.K. Steele and his wife Anna in 1870. They, and the other pioneers of Maize, came despite the presence of the Osage Indians, who were the original occupants of the region and were not yet completely willing to give up the land. In the 1860s, only a few miles from what would be Maize, these Indians killed the first white settler to Sedgwick County, John Ross, and in 1867 the Osage had conducted a series of raids in Kansas reacting to the building of the Union Pacific railroad.

However, these pioneers remained, and on February 1st, 1886, William A. Williams became the first postmaster of the new Maize, Kansas. The town was located in Section 19, Range 1 of the Park Township in Sedgwick County. It was founded as the first stop out of Wichita on the Wichita and Colorado railway under the auspices of the Missouri Pacific railroad company.

Famous Maize People & Fun Facts: Kansas has the largest population of wild grouse in North America. The grouse is commonly called the prairie chicken. Bet you didn’t know that? Maize comes from the Indian word for corn – so it’s not a surprise that there’s a town in Kansas: Maize. Poet Edgar Lee Masters and actress Hattie McDaniel and psychiatrist William C. Menninger all hail from nearby to Maize, KS.

Rhodes Dobrin

Matt was wonderful to work with and helped us get a water filtration system set up to take care of all the chlorine and hardness in our water. He sent a great installer out here who did a great job, got us up and running same day and left the place clean. They also swapped out my whole house shutoff valve and installed a proper ground box. Now my water doesnt reek of chlorine when I take a shower!

sam Lapham

My wife and I were in need of an urgent repair and CJ came to fix a leaking pipe. He was professional, helpful, honest, and did great work. He did a good job communicating what the issue was and was helpful with making a decision. We both left the experience feeling he did good work and did everything he could to make sure we were happy with the outcome. No complaints only compliments. We have saved his card and will definitely be using Benjamin Franklin for future repairs.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – A True Professional and Trusted Partner I cannot say enough good things about Jose from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing. From the moment he arrived, Jose was courteous, knowledgeable, and laser-focused on solving our hot water issue. He not only installed our new Stiebel Eltron tankless water heater flawlessly, but he also took the time to explain every detail of the system and ensured everything was operating safely and efficiently before he left. What truly sets Jose apart, however, is that he didn’t stop with plumbing. After listening to our concerns about high energy bills and electrical strain, he connected us with his broader team of trusted professionals across the Mister Sparky, One Hour Heating and Air, and Service Minds network. Because of Jose, we were able to quickly assess and upgrade our outdated electrical system, replace inefficient HVAC components, and get on track for a smooth solar installation next month. He didn’t just fix a water heater—he helped orchestrate a complete home efficiency transformation. Jose is not just a plumber—he’s a problem solver, an educator, and a true ambassador for customer care. We are so grateful to him and will be recommending Benjamin Franklin Plumbing to everyone we know. Thank you, Jose! Your work has made our forever home safer, smarter, and more sustainable.
