Handy was a small settlement in Bloom Township, Osborne County, Kansas, United States.



History


Handy was never a ghost town by any stretch of the imagination, but it was a rural post office in a farmhouse - nothing more. Handy was organized as a post office in 1882. The post office was discontinued in 1889. [2]
