Frontier Military Historic Byway

The Frontier Military Road was used to provide soldiers and supplies to the forts along the "Permanent Indian Frontier". Fort Leavenworth and Fort Scott were on the route in what is now eastern Kansas. The only major Civil War Battle in Kansas was fought at Mine Creek on October 25, 1864. This was the second largest cavalry battle in the Civil War where approximately 2,800 Union cavalrymen overwhelmed 8,000 Confederates.
