2018 Map of Pleasanton

About this map

Pleasanton serves as the central hub of this Eastern Kansas landscape, where the grid of city streets transitions into the expansive bottomlands of the Marais des Cygnes River. The river winds through the northeastern quadrant, joined by tributaries like Big Sugar Cr and Muddy Cr that define the drainage patterns of the region. This 2018 survey documents a modern rural landscape deeply rooted in its local history, evidenced by the numerous small burial grounds dispersed across the townships. Genealogists will find a high density of named sites, including Green Valley Cem, Eureka Cem, and Lamb - Mills Cem. Aviation infrastructure is represented by the Linn County Airport and the private Yeamans Fox Nest Airport. The geography is further marked by the proximity of Trading Post to the north, a site of significant regional importance situated near the riverbanks, while Pleasanton Lake provides a notable water feature just west of the primary settlement.
