Description

View of Great Bend, Barton County, K.S., 1882 / drawn & published by J. J. Stoner.

This bird’s-eye view print of Great Bend, Kansas was drawn and published by J. J. Stoner, Beck & Pauli Lith. in 1882. Great Bend was settled in the 1870's at a great bend of the Arkansas River, at which the river flows from northeast to southeast.

The town grew following the arrival of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad, and it became a valued shipping point for Texas cattle.

The cattle industry lasted until the late 1870's and Great Bend progressed into an important business center and county seat of Barton County.

The map shows labeled streets, buildings, waterways and railroad route. Inset illustrations feature downtown street scenes. The population is indicated as 1200.
