History edit

Rooks County was established with four townships: Bow Creek, Lowell, Paradise and Stockton. That number increased to seven by 1878[2] and twenty three in 1925. The twenty three townships were in place until 1971 when the number was reduced to the current twelve townships.[3]

Township 7 was formed by renaming Richland Township[4] in 1971.[5] While other Rooks County townships were combined pursuant to Kansas Statute 80-1110,[6] Richland was just renamed using the new naming standard.

The South Fork Solomon River traverses the township.

Richland Township edit

Richland Township was formed in approximately 1880 from part of Stockton Township.[7]
