Quinter is a city in Gove County, Kansas, United States. As of the 2010 census, the city population was 918.
History:
The city of Quinter is built at the location of an old railroad switching site called Melota. A town named Familton was built there in 1885, consisting originally of a hotel. The U.S. Government would not establish a post office under the Familton name, because of possible confusion with other names in the state, so another had to be chosen. The name Quinter was settled upon, after Rev. James Quinter, a local Baptist Brethren minister.
The city received some slight national publicity in November 2006 when longtime resident Waldo McBurney, age 104, was proclaimed the oldest worker in the United States.
