The map illustrates towns, railroad stations, county seats, rivers, creeks and townships of Bourbon, Crawford and Cherokee counties in Kansas. Date: Between January 01, 1880 and December 31, 1890 http://www.kansasmemory.org/item/210180/page/1 Enjoy!
It's 1880 or earlier...The Arcadia-Coalvale, KS. branch was built 1877 & the Arcadia, KS.-MO.state line main was built 1880...What's really interesting is Litchfield is named Carbon, never seen that before...Roger
The map illustrates eastern Kansas and border counties in Missouri along the Missouri River, Ft. Scott, and Gulf Railroad company. Larger image and description at: https://www.kansasmemory.org/item/210182 KansasMemory.org Kansas Historical Society
Very weird to see a map that doesnt have the line going on down to Springfield, the MP going south towards Joplin and the KCS.
