History
Shattuck is located in what was once the Cherokee Outlet.[3] The Southern Kansas Railway built a railroad through the area in 1887, and there was a railroad water station called Norice on the site that later became Shattuck.[3] Non-Indian settlers first arrived in the Land Run of 1893.[3] Around the railroad station, new businesses opened to support the farmers, including a blacksmith shop, a store, a school, and a post office.[3] The post office, which was incorporated in November 1893, was named Shattuck after a Santa Fe railroad director.[3] The town site was plotted 1901, and the town was incorporated in 1906.[3]
