History
Shattuck is located in what was once the Cherokee Outlet. 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. Non-Indian settlers first arrived in the Land Run of 1893. Around the railroad station, new businesses opened to support the farmers, including a blacksmith shop, a store, a school, and a post office. The post office, which was incorporated in November 1893, was named Shattuck after a Santa Fe Railroad director. The town site was plotted 1901, and the town was incorporated in 1906.
On May 25, 2021, an earthquake magnitude 4.1 on the Richter Scale occurred a few miles west of Shattuck, despite it not being an area known for earthquakes.
