==History==

In 1865, the Butterfield Overland Despatch established a short-lived station named Fossil Creek Station along its route from Atchison, Kansas to Denver near the site of modern Russell. In 1867, the Kansas Pacific Railway reached the area and built its own station, also named Fossil Creek, later just Fossil, north of the Butterfield station. That same year, the Kansas Legislature established the surrounding area as Russell County. In 1871, colonists from Ripon, Wisconsin established a permanent settlement at Fossil Station, renaming it Russell after the county.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Russell County Historical Society )〕 Russell was incorporated and named the provisional county seat in 1872, and, after a two-year dispute with neighboring Bunker Hill, it became the permanent county seat in 1874.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = City of Russell )〕 In 1876, Volga Germans, mostly from the area around Saratov and Samara in Russia, began settling in and around Russell.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Kansas Trails )
The first discovery oil well in Russell County was drilled west of Russell in 1923. An oil boom ensued and lasted through the 1930s, attracting settlers from Oklahoma and Texas. Petroleum production became a staple of the local economy.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Russell County Economic Development & CVB )
Russell came to national attention in the mid-1990s as the hometown of U.S. Senators Bob Dole and Arlen Specter when both men campaigned for the U.S. presidency.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Russell County Historical Society )〕 Dole was born and raised in Russell, and it remained his official place of residence throughout his political career.
