1893 Map of Olathe
USGS Topo · Published 1893About this map
Olathe and Paola anchor this late-nineteenth-century study of the Eastern Kansas and Western Missouri borderlands. The landscape is defined by the convergence of major rail corridors, including the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad and the Kansas City Fort Scott and Gulf Railroad, which established the towns of Ocheltree, Bonita, and Lenexa as vital transit points. The survey illustrates the rural township structure of Johnson and Miami counties, revealing a transition from the riparian valleys of the Kansas River in the north to the Marias Des Cygnes River in the south.
