2012 Map of Pleasant Plains
USGS Topo · Published 2012About this map
Pleasant Plains and the neighboring settlements of Claysville and Berlin anchor this portion of Sangamon County, where the landscape is defined by the headwaters and meandering courses of Richland Cr, Prairie Cr, and Spring Cr. The region's agricultural character is evidenced by a dense network of country roads bearing established family and descriptive names, such as Yankee Town Rd, Walbaum Rd, and Mahoney Rd. Local heritage is preserved in several rural burial grounds, including Pleasant Plains Cem, Irwin Cem, and Berlin Cem, which provide valuable touchpoints for genealogical research. The presence of the Smith RLA Airport highlights the persistence of small-scale aviation within this predominantly rural corridor west of the state capital.
