You are correct I haven't driven that for awhile but Excelsior is approximately 25 miles from Kansas City and you go on East on Highway 10 and I would say it is about 1/3 the way to Richmond and Richmond is 20 miles from Excelsior. My parents lived in Richmond and use to drive from North Kansas City a lot at that time. I have a picture of my father taken in front of an old salt box type house which was his birthplace in Elkhorn. It was taken just before it was torn down and that was probably in the 30's or 40's.
