About this map

The Marais des Cygnes River meanders across the central landscape of Franklin County, defining the drainage patterns for numerous tributaries like Lost Cr and Kelsey Cr. This 2015 U.S. Geological Survey representation of the area surrounding Pomona highlights a rural infrastructure built upon a grid of regionally named roads such as Arkansas Rd and Idaho Rd. The settlement of Pomona sits in the northern portion of the quadrangle, characterized by a traditional street plan including W Franklin St and several numbered avenues near Woodlawn Cem.

Further south, the landscape shifts toward agricultural and aviation uses, evidenced by Chanay Airport near Jackson Rd. The small community of Ransomville is situated along the diagonal path of Ols Hwy 50, while the Chippewa Hills rise to the east. Local history is anchored by several burial grounds, including Central Cem and Mount Pleasant Cem, which serve as quiet landmarks among the creek-fed valleys of Hard Fish Cr and Whisky Cr.
