2014 Map of Platte City

About this map

Platte City anchors the northeastern corner of this Missouri landscape, where the Platte River snakes through the center of the quadrangle before meeting the Missouri River at the Delaware Bend. The terrain is defined by the sharp contrast between the broad river bottomlands and the dissected uplands where family-named landmarks like Martin Hollow and Roberts Lake are located. For genealogists, the map is a dense record of rural burial sites, documenting eight distinct locations including the Todd Cemetery, Fox Cemetery, and Bain Cemetery.
