Auburn is a city in Shawnee County, Kansas, United States. As of the 2020 census, the population of the city was 1,273. In July 1854, John W. Brown came to this area and found it highly suitable for a homestead. He acquired 800 acres through bartering with local Indians. He later returned home to Missouri to tell his family and friends about the area. Some returned with him. In 1856, Mr. Brown along with M. C. Dickey, Loring Farnsworth and Henry Fox pre-empted 320 acres for the purpose of a town. They christened it Brownville, although it was changed in 1857 to present name "Auburn" due to the fact there was another settlement with the same name. This was before the introduction of postal codes. It was located on the California Road and work began at once on the many buildings needed in a town of Brownville's size. Two daily stage lines brought mail and people to the town and business was very good.
