Bourbon County Carpool Tour - History of Marmaton/Marmiton

Bourbon County Carpool Tour - History of Marmaton/Marmiton 

The Bourbon County History Tours are starting with a visit to Marmaton on Saturday, July 3rd. The tour will consist of the history of the Marmaton/Marmiton communities, the massacre in Marmiton and Marmaton Cemetery where 5 of the 6 killed in the massacre are buried.
 
The tour is by personal vehicle again this year which will meet and leave the National Ave side of Memorial Hall at 8:30 am to beat the heat of the summer. Please come before 8:30 so we can check you in and give you information and bags of goodies.
 
Pre-register online with the Fort Scott and Area Chamber of Commerce for $5.00 per person.
 
The Old Fort Genealogy Society, Fort Scott and Area Chamber of Commerce and Historic Preservation Association are sponsoring this event and all three are active in research, news releases and telling the stories. We will have a tour the first Saturday of each month until the weather keeps us away from the gravel roads.
