Tecumseh, a hamlet in Shawnee county, is located in the township of the same name on the Kansas river and the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe R. R. 5 miles east of Topeka, the county seat. It has 2 stores, express and telegraph offices, and a money order postoffice with two rural routes. The population in 1910 was 35. This is one of the old villages of Kansas and is figured in the early history of both the state and Shawnee county. The territorial legislature of 1855 passed an act making it the county seat, but it was never so recognized by the people of the county.
