Huron Indian Cemetery

Fun fact.. this burial ground is still here today because of Lyda Conley, the first woman, and native woman at that, admitted into the kansas bar association who fought to protect the land

Was a little difficult to get to from the parking in the back. It was interesting to see al of the older tombstones and those that were markers for those who were unknown. Very relaxing and shady for those visiting on a warm sunny day. Glad I went up and had a look I had overlooked it for far to long. I would suggest a visit if you are in the area.

Found awesome historical stuff here. My kids loved it.

Small but interesting, real and original. Genuine Kansas City artifacts free to anyone interested enough to visit.

Important history of KCK and Kansas. Includes the graves of members of the Wyandot Nation of Kansas, a matriarchal, Iroquoian/Haudenosaunee tribe originally from Ontario, Canada, that were forcibly removed from OH in 1843 and African American soldiers who died in the Battle of Westport, a Civil War battle that occurred in metropolitan KC in October 1864. The cemetery also includes the graves of the 1st Native American Woman Attorney to argue before the US Supreme Court, Lyda Conley, and veterans from all US battles from the Vietnam War to the American Revolutionary War.
