  3. Kansas (Barteldes) Seed House, 803 New Hampshire St. (1864-1890s) Langston Hughes probably took his seeds to this warehouse rather than the retail store at 804 Massachusetts St. The three-story building, 120 feet by 120 feet, was renovated and now includes office and retail space. The plaque at the entrance reads: Typical utilitarian stone warehouse constructed between 1864-1890s in three stages. Barteldes Seed Company, founded ca. 1860, cleaned, stored, packaged, and shipped its internationally marketed products from this location until 1962. The founder, F. Barteldes, died in 1887, but his heirs kept the company going. Another seed store during the time of Hughes was the W.J. Busch Seed Co. at 608 Massachusetts. It also could be the seed company Hughes knew (1)

  5. Kansas (Kaw) River scene of boys fishing, early 20th Century This photograph shows boys sitting on the north side of the Kaw River dam looking toward Massachusetts Street, the main street of downtown Lawrence. Industrial buildings across the river, including the barbed wire factory beyond the dam, employed many workers in early Lawrence. Langston Hughes's uncle Nathaniel Turner worked in a paper mill near here at the time of his death in 1897. He may have died in an accident at the mill. Langston Hughes would have seen groups like this as a boy. Fishing from the dam area of the river continues to be a popular pastime. River catfish reach up to fifty pounds at this spot on the river. The photograph is in the Watkins Community Museum collection, courtesy of Ed Bumgardner. (1)
