Thinking of how my father's family starting moving into, and around,
the state of Kansas after the Civil War ended last night, and
found these wonderful photos in various Historical
Society archives - state, county, and city...

(somehow it doesn't look like Miss Kitty's Long Branch in Gunsmoke)
Main Street in Wichita - 1875
Douglas Avenue in Wichita - 1887
Millinery Store of Mary Klentz in 1888; Main Street, Wichita
Fourth of July Parade, Hill City, Graham County - about 1905
The founders of Nicodemus, Graham County - the first all
African-American town in Kansas
