This report was funded by a fiscal year 2013 Historic Preservation Fund Grant to the Kansas State Historic Preservation Office (grant number P13AF00045) and a sub-grant to Douglas County, Kansas (project number KS-13-2). From report introduction: "Generally, the survey area consists of the unincorporated area of Wakarusa Township (approximately 47 square miles) in the center of the county. The city of Lawrence is located in Wakarusa Township and occupies much of the center of the original township. The township borders Eudora Township to the east, Palmrya Township to the southeast, Willow Springs Township to the southwest, Clinton and Kanwaka Townships to the west, and Lecompton Township to the northwest. In 2013 during the initial phase of the heritage survey, the consultants surveyed properties in the eastern part of Wakarusa Township, generally east of E. 1500 Road. Also, the consultants surveyed selected properties in the southwestern part of Wakarusa Township in response to contacts from interested property owners. In 2014 during the final phase of the survey, the consultants completed the survey of the east part of the township between E. 1500 Road and U.S. Highway 59, the southwest part of the township, and the northwest part of the township between the Lawrence city limits and the Kansas River."
