2017 Map of Pleasant Plains

About this map

The borderlands of Independence Co and White Co reveal a landscape defined by an intricate network of waterways and rural settlements. Pleasant Plains serves as a primary anchor in the east, while the smaller communities of Cedar Grove and Roosevelt are connected by a web of local roads such as Cedar Grove Rd and Roosevelt Rd. The drainage patterns here are complex, with Salado Creek carving through the northern sections and Tenmile Creek winding through the center, eventually joined by numerous tributaries like Mitchell Br and Wagon Wheel Creek. Genealogists will find significance in several burial grounds, including Old Union Cem and the Pleasant Plains Cem, which provide a geographic context for the area's long-standing families. The terrain transitions into the southern reaches via Fourteenmile Creek and Cypress Creek, illustrating the heavy influence of the watershed on the region's development.
