Local record guide
What we hold on Parkville, and who keeps its records.
Local profile
Parkville is an incorporated place in Platte County, a place of 7,117 people, and keeps its own council and town business records. The Platte County offices are in Platte City, the county seat. Each Platte County office is listed on our Platte County page.
Abandoned mine records
Where the workings are, and the office that holds the mine maps.
From the old mine records
The mine records hold 7 mine sites inside the city or town limits: 7 past producers, now closed; the old survey maps add 2 holes drawn inside the city or town limits, 0 of them shafts or tunnels. The mineral the records name is crushed stone.
A point in either file is a location, not a property line: the sheet shows the opening on the surface, not the rooms under it. The record that shows what runs under a parcel is the mine map. The OSMRE National Mine Map Repository holds scanned underground mine maps and answers requests for a named mine or an area.
Parkville sits over the Western Region coal field and the coal there is medium and high volatile bituminous, worked underground in many places. The two federal files record a shaft, an adit or a deposit where one was drawn on a survey sheet or catalogued as a site; neither file carries the outline of the workings, so the counts above are not the measure of what was mined under this town. The record that shows it is the mine map, held by Missouri Mine Map Repository (Missouri Geological Survey) and linked below.
Missouri abandoned mine maps ranks every county and town in the state by the workings recorded inside it, names the office that holds the mine maps, and says what to do if the ground moves.
Disclaimer: The mine information here is for general information only. Old mine records can be incomplete, outdated or wrong, and finding nothing here does not mean there is nothing there. Check with the mine map office named here before you rely on it, and have a qualified engineer look at any ground you are worried about.
