Three Survey Markers • 40th Parallel Baseline (KS/NE line at the River) • First Guide Meridian East (KS/NE line 60 miles from the river) • 6th Principal Meridian (KS/NE line 108 miles from the river Soon after the passing of the Kansas-Nebraska Act in 1854, a survey was commissioned by the US Government so that the lands newly opened for settlement could be properly and legally plotted out for the homesteaders. The survey was carried out by Charles Manners who started by erecting a on the west bluff of the Missouri River in 1855 at 40 degrees North latitude--the Northern boundary of Kansas. From this point, he surveyed 108 miles west and placed a red sandstone marker at the location of the 6th Principal Meridian.

The imaginary line between these two markers marked the border between the two future states. The original sandstone marker is still intact under the manhole cover in the middle of the road, though part of it has been carted of to the Kansas Museum of History in Topeka. {] A cast iron marker marks the 40th Parallel--the dividing line between Kansas and Nebraska. The marker was placed at this location May 8, 1855 by Charles Manners and Capt.

Lee * of the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers. The marker is 500 to 600 lbs., hollow, 1' thick, with a 16' square base.

It was cast in St. Louis, MO in 1854.

The 40th Parallel played an important roll in the Kansas-Nebraska Act and demarked disputed areas--slave and free--precipitating the American Civil War. The 40th Parallel, the 6th Principal Meridian, is the longest baseline in the U.S., marking state boundaries to the Colorado-Utah border. Anyone interested in seeing the marker in person must be willing to hike upward--150 feet vertically--on a trail maintained for that purpose. Using switchbacks, a cleared path and handrails, one can climb to the marker which sits atop the Missouri River Bluff on Highway 7 just west of the Missouri River. From the Junction of Hwy US 36 and Hwy K 7 between Highland and Troy, follow scenic Hwy K 7 north past the village of White Cloud to the Kansas/Nebraska border.

Correction Notes: From Jerry Penry, assistant editor for the Nebraska Surveyor newsletter. Lee was not with Charles Manners on May 8, 1855 to place the cast iron marker. Lee was there earlier in November of 1854 with John P. Johnson to set a temporary oak stake.
