Osage County is located in the east-central part of Kansas, and was formed in 1855 as Weller County. Its name was changed to Osage in 1859, after the Osage River which runs through it. The county seat is Lyndon, and the largest city in the county is Osage City. Osage County is bordered by Shawnee and Douglas counties to the north and northeast; Franklin county to the east, Coffey county to the south; and Lyon and Wabaunsee counties to the southwest and west.
