Its a really small town in the middle of no where! Not very many people know where it is. Has anyone ever been there before?

Cherryvale is a city in Montgomery County, Kansas, United States. The population was 2,386 at the 2000 census.Is self-described as the "Gateway to Big Hill Lake."
Cherryvale was formed on the land of the Osage Nation who were pushed out by veterans of the U.S. Civil War looking for land. The first white man to purchase land and settle here was Mr. Abe Eaton, who later sold it to the Kansas City, Lawrence & Southern Kansas Railroad which later became the Leavenworth, Lawrence & Galveston Railway. The town site was plotted by the railroad in May 1871.
From 1871-1873 the Benders, later called the Bloody Benders set up an inn outside of town and killed at least 12 travellers including one child.
The town grew exponentially as a railroad hub, leader in zinc mining, and brick production. Since the 1970s with the loss of manufacturing the town's population has dwindled as has most of the area cities.

Since the population of Cherryvale is about 2500, I would expect that at least that many people of heard of it. Plus about 37,000 the people in the surrounding county. Times about 50 for all the people who have passed through in the last 50 years. That makes about 2 million people.
Then there's people who saw the movie "Harvey Girls" (1945 MGM musical); Cherryvale was mentioned in the movie.
And that's before you count the people who read this.
