About Our Complex John OLoughlin came to Lakin in 1873 and set up a trading post in an abandoned dugout beside the recently completed Santa Fe Railway. Lakins first permanent white settler John OLoughlin was a savvy businessman banker rancher and farmer. He and his wife Mary Farrell OLoughlin raised seven children and played key roles in the establishment of the community of Lakin. The museum property was deeded to the Kearny County Historical Society in 1974 by Jennie Rose OLoughlin daughter of John and Mary OLoughlin.
