About this map

The small settlements of Nashua and Gashland anchor this mid-century survey along the border of Platte and Clay Counties. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of rural schoolhouses, including Lone Star School, Martin School, and Woods School, which served the farming communities spread across the townships of May, Gallatin, and Platte. This distribution of one-room schools suggests a stable, decentralized agricultural population just before suburban expansion reached these northern reaches of the Kansas City region.
