Kansas Historical Society nominates sites for evaluation At its regular quarterly meeting at the Kansas Historical Society in Topeka Saturday, August 11, the Historic Sites Board of Review voted to list two properties in the Register of Historic Kansas Places and to forward 17 nominations to the office of the Keeper of the National Register of Historic Places in Washington, D.C., to be evaluated by their professional staff. If they concur with the board’s findings, the properties will be included in the National Register. Twelve of the National Register nominations are the result of a partnership between the Kansas Historical Society and the National Trails System of the National Park Service to document historic resources along the Santa Fe Trail. In conjunction with these nominations, the board approved a revision of the “Historic Resources of the Santa Fe Trail” National Register Multiple Property Documentation Form, which originally was approved in 1994. This document serves as a cover document rather than a nomination to the National Register, with the purpose of establishing a basis of eligibility for related properties. In other action, the board voted against retaining the National Register status of a schoolhouse that is to be relocated, but the board voted in favor of the school remaining in the Register of Historic Kansas Places after it is moved. The National Register of Historic Places is the country’s official list of historically significant properties. Authorized by the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, the National Park Service's National Register of Historic Places is part of a national program to coordinate and support public and private efforts to identify, evaluate, and protect America's historic and archeological resources. Eligible properties must be significant for one or more of the four criteria for evaluation. Properties can be eligible if they are associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history. They can be eligible if they are associated with the lives of persons significant in our past. Distinctive construction can qualify
properties for the National Register if they embody the characteristic of a type, period, or method of construction, or represent the work of a master, or possess high artistic values, or represent a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction. Lastly, properties may be eligible for the National Register if they have yielded or may be likely to yield information important in prehistory or history. The National Register recognizes properties of local, statewide, and national significance. The Register of Historic Kansas Places is our state’s official list of historically significant properties. Properties included in the National Register are automatically listed in the State Register. However, not all properties listed in the State Register are included in the National Register. The same general criteria are used to assess the eligibility of a property for inclusion in the state register, but more flexibility is allowed in the interpretation of the criteria for eligibility. One site in Grant County and two in Morton County are included on the list of nominations to the National Registry: Santa Fe Trail – Grant County Segment 1 (Klein’s Ruts): The Santa Fe Trail – Grant County Segment 1, also known as Klein’s Ruts, is located in Grant County, in southwest Kansas. This segment is part of an approximately 40-mile branch of the Cimarron Route that was located entirely within the waterless area known as La Jornada and connected the Mountain Route at the Upper Crossing of the Arkansas River near Lakin, Kansas, with the Cimarron Route. Relatively little is known about this branch between the two rivers, but the first known use of the Upper Crossing in relation to the trail was during a survey expedition led by George Sibley in 1825 (though he did not survey this site). The nominated property includes several visible trail swales where at least 20 shallow ruts converge to form four main arterial ruts. It is nominated to the National Register of Historic Places for its significance in the areas of
transportation and commerce, and it has the potential to yield additional important information about this 40-mile branch road between the Arkansas and Cimarron Rivers in Kansas. Point of Rocks – Middle Spring Santa Fe Trail Historic District – Morton County: The Point of Rocks – Middle Spring Historic District in Morton County includes multiple remnants of the Cimarron Route. Travel over this segment of the trail began in 1822 and ended with the arrival of the railroad at the Kansas-Colorado state line in 1872. Middle Spring was the next reliable water source west of the Lower Cimarron (or Wagon Bed) Spring. Almost all travelers looking for the water promised at Middle Spring would have used neighboring Point of Rocks as a navigational aid. This large light-colored rock formation with a high flat surface, referred to as Mesa Blanco (white table) by Mexican freighters, could be seen for several miles. In evidence of the role this natural landmark played, visible trail segments curve around Middle Spring and directly to the south of Point of Rocks. The nominated property includes four trail segments, a spring, a natural navigational aid, and a later commemorative marker erected in 1914 by the Daughters of the American Revolution. It is nominated to the National Register of Historic Places for its significance in the areas of transportation, commerce, and social history, and it has the potential to yield additional important information about the trail. Santa Fe Trail – Cimarron
National Grassland Segments 1-5 – Morton County: In addition to the Point of Rocks – Middle Springs Santa Fe Trail Historic District, there are five segments of the Santa Fe Trail in the Cimarron National Grassland that are nominated to the National Register. Travel over these segments of the trail began in 1822 and ended with the arrival of the railroad at the Kansas-Colorado state line in 1872. This trail segment is closely related to nearby Point of Rocks and Middle Spring, which was the next reliable water source west of the Lower Cimarron (or Wagon Bed) Spring at the western end of La Jornada. Documented trail segments in western Kansas and in the Cimarron National Grassland have confirmed the pattern of traffic in this region historically tended to follow the four-parallel-column formation. The nominated segments include trail swales and two commemorative markers erected in 1907 and 1914 by the Daughters of the American Revolution. They are nominated to the National Register of Historic Places for their significance in the areas of transportation, commerce, and social history, and they have the potential to yield additional information on the use of the trail during its initial period of significance.
