The
work of the Leavenworth County Historical Society is
integral to the preservation of our unique history in the
First City of Kansas. We are ever mindful that it was here
the history of Kansas began! The work accomplished over
the past 70 years has been due to dedicated volunteers,
members, and supporters. With this continued support, it
can endure for years to come and be of benefit to our
community and all we serve. There are many ways to support
the Society in the operation of the Carroll Mansion
Museum.
