A local history museum housed in a historic AT&SF Depot in Ottawa, Kansas. Part of the Franklin County (Kansas) Historical Society. Also, we love railroad history!
LOUIS A. BARNEY (1814-1882): A real estate developer and horticulturalist who struggled mightily with alcohol and became one of the first Kansans prosecuted under the state’s prohibition laws of 1880. The "Barney Block" building stood at the SW corner of 2nd & Main until 1880. #OttawaKS #Cemeteries
