About Mascot

Mascot is an unincorporated community in northwestern Harlan County, about 5 miles east of Oxford in Spring Grove Township.

History

The place was first called Rouse and was renamed Mascot by the railroad. A post office opened in 1886. In 1890 the state gazetteer described Mascot as a post office and station on the Burlington & Missouri River Railroad in the northwestern part of the county, 15 miles from Alma, with about 20 people; George L. Hutchinson was postmaster and station agent. The post office closed in 1892.

The Mascot school, District 18, served the neighborhood for decades and graduated high-school classes from 1923 to 1958; its last building dates from 1940.
