It is located south of Lawrence and north of Baldwin City. HistoryThe first settlement was made at Vinland in 1854.[2] In the earliest days of the community, some called it "Coal Creek", due to deposits of the sedimentary rock in a nearby waterway.[3] The settlement eventually earned the name "Vineland" (after the orchard of one of the first settlers, William Barnes), which later evolved into "Vinland" after a clerical error. Most of the settlers of the early community were abolitionists or Free-Staters from New England, and consequently, they opposed the extension of slavery into Kansas Territory.[3][5] In 1859, Annie Soule and Martha Cutter helped found a library (and an associated book club), in the hopes that it "would contribute to the 'moral, social, and intellectual improvement of [the settlement's] members";[5] specifically, they hoped "to prevent dancing from becoming the only amusement in the community."[4] The library initially boasted a collection 10 books (which eventually grew to over 2,000), and residents of the small town were allowed to check them out if they contributed an annual fee of 50 cents.[5][6] The building that currently holds the collection was constructed in 1900 when the community's book supply grew too large.[6] Today, Coal Creek Library is considered the oldest subscription library in the state.[7] Vinland was not legally platted until the 1860s.[8] A post office was opened in Vinland in 1868, and remained in operation until 1954.[9] In 1912, the population of the settlement was 75, and it housed "a fine agricultural district ... [and] express and telegraph facilities".[2] Today, the Vinland Grange Hall is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[10] References1. ^{{cite web | url=http://geonames.usgs.gov | title=US Board on Geographic Names | publisher=United States Geological Survey | date=October 25, 2007 | accessdate=January 31, 2008}} 2. ^1 {{cite book | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Qi9cXyTWt9EC&pg=PA849#v=onepage&q&f=true | title=Kansas: A Cyclopedia of State History, Volume 2 | publisher=Standard Publishing Company | author=Blackmar, Frank Wilson | year=1912 | pages=849}} 3. ^{{cite web |last1=Weiser |first1=Kathy |title=Vinland, Kansas |url=http://www.legendsofkansas.com/vinland.html |website=Legends of Kansas |accessdate=January 24, 2019 |date=2017}} 4. ^1 {{cite news | url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=JroyAAAAIBAJ&sjid=hegFAAAAIBAJ&pg=6612%2C4399216 | title=What's in a Name?
