USGS Topo · Published 1913About this map
Parsons emerges as a critical late-nineteenth-century rail hub in this topographic survey of Labette County. The town sits at the intersection of several major lines, including the Missouri Kansas and Texas Railroad and the Kansas City and Pacific Railroad, illustrating the vital role of transit in the development of southeastern Kansas. To the southeast, the Neosho River snakes through the landscape, flanked by the township of Oswego, which serves as another significant crossing point for the St Louis and San Francisco Railroad.
