History

Homewood was located on the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway at altitude 1,039 feet (317 m) above sea level.[2] In 1900, it contained a population of about 100 inhabitants. Around this time, a number of stores operated out of the community, and it also had its own school.[3] It was the supply and shipping point for the surrounding rural area.[3]

The Homewood post office located in the community in 1877 had been the Forest Home post office earlier that year.[1][4] It closed in 1955.[4]
