About the area |
Around 1878 the Sante Fe railroad established a flag station where Holcomb now exists and called it Sherlock. Accepting an offer from the promoters of Garden City to move all the homes and businesses from Sherlock, most residents moved leaving Sherlock a virtual ghost town. However, around 1906 the Garden City Company's Sugar Beet Factory was built at the west edge of Garden City giving new life to Sherlock. It was then laid out and plotted as Holcomb. In the 1950's the Alfalfa Dehydrating Plant started operations in Holcomb. Although defunct since the 1980's it brought more people to Holcomb. |
