1961 Map of Pleasant Gap

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Pleasant Gap sits at the heart of this rural Missouri landscape, serving as a focal point for the surrounding townships of Summit, Deepwater, Pleasant Gap, and Hudson. The area is defined by its intricate drainage network, where Deepwater Cr and various branches like Double Branch and Willow Branch carve through the terrain. This 1961 field-checked survey reveals a traditional agrarian settlement pattern, marked by numerous small family cemeteries and country churches that anchored the community. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of burial sites, from Smith Cem in the north to the Round Prairie Ch Cem in the southeast. Educational and spiritual life is well-documented through landmarks like the Double Branch Sch and the Pleasant Ridge Ch, providing a detailed record of local infrastructure before modern consolidation changed the rural schoolhouse and church landscape.
