Abstract

The following paper is a history of the town of Stanley, Oxford Township, Johnson County, Kansas. Stanley was an unincorporated community that was annexed by Overland Park in 1985 despite resistance from residents. The information was mainly compiled from old newspaper articles, a book on the early history of the area, and from interviews of former Stanley locals.
