Little Blue River (Missouri)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Little Blue River is a stream in Jackson County, Missouri that gave its name to the Battle of Little Blue River during the American Civil War. It rises in the southern Jackson County town of Grandview and empties into the Missouri River just west of the town of Sibley. Despite its name, it is not a tributary of the nearby Blue River. It should also not be confused with the Little Blue River of central Kansas.
- Ridgelines of this historic watershed defined the wagon train routes first used by Santa Fe Trail Pioneers and Oregon Trail Emigrants.
