Barton County, located in the great state of Kansas, was officially established on February 26, 1867. Named after Clara Barton, a notable Civil War nurse and founder of the American Red Cross, the county is situated in central Kansas and covers an area of approximately 900 square miles. The rich and fertile land attracted settlers during the Homestead Act of 1862, and towns such as Great Bend, Ellinwood, and Hoisington emerged as bustling hubs of activity by the end of the 1800s.

The development of the railroad in the late 19th century further spurred growth in Barton County. By connecting its communities to wider markets for agricultural products, the railroad industry played a pivotal role in the county's economic landscape. With its burgeoning agriculture and thriving livestock market, Barton County became a key contributor to Kansas' evolving economy.

One fun fact about Barton County is that it is home to the geographical center of Kansas, located 48.9 miles south-southwest of the county seat, Great Bend. This central point not only holds geographical importance but also emphasizes Barton County's position as the agricultural heartland within Kansas state.
