Neuchatel, a hamlet of Nemaha county, is located in the township of the same name in the extreme southwest corner of the county, 18 miles from Seneca, the county seat, and 4 miles from Onaga, Pottawatomie county, from which place it receives mail. The Neuchatel settlement was made by French and Swiss immigrants and in 1870 Jules Leroux started the publication of a paper devoted to communism, printed in the French language and called The Star of Kansas. In 1876 he took the publication to Iowa.
