Description: The Black Jack Battlefield Trust, a 501(c)3 entity, manages and owns the Black Jack Battlefield, a 40-acre site in southeastern Douglas County, Kansas. On June 2, 1856 was the first time that the opposing sides of the slavery issue met in open battle within a State or Territory of the United States. One of the men who fought beside John Brown in this battle owned a farmstead on the property which is currently being stabilized. Funding was provided to supplement private donations to begin the stabilization of the National Register structure and complete the site action plan.
