2015 Map of Plankinton

About this map

Plankinton stands as the central hub of this Aurora County landscape, situated at the intersection of several significant local transit corridors. The town's layout is defined by a grid of named streets such as N Main St and Delavan St, while the surrounding township is organized into a geometric section system. Genealogists will find notable detail in the surrounding rural area, which includes several established burial grounds like Saint Johns Cem, Mizpah Cem, and Plankinton Cem. To the north, Fish Lake provides a natural landmark, while Enemy Cr meanders through the southeastern corner of the quadrangle. The map documents a classic South Dakota prairie settlement pattern, where small-scale infrastructure like Dudley Cem and a dense network of range roads serve a dispersed agricultural community.
