Sibleyville is a small place in Douglas County, Kansas, United States. It is known as an "unincorporated community." This means it doesn't have its own local government like a city or town.
About Sibleyville
Sibleyville is located about five miles southeast of Lawrence. It was once found where County Road 458 met the old Leavenworth, Lawrence and Fort Gibson railroad tracks.
A Small Community
Sibleyville was never a very big place. It had only a few houses, usually less than a dozen. It was more like a tiny settlement than a bustling town.
What Remains Today
Over time, Sibleyville became even smaller. By the 1960s, not much was left of the original community. Today, it is mostly just a historical location.
