letter from the administrator If a picture is worth a thousand words than I really don’t need to say much about the photo above (courtesy of Lee’s Summit Police Sergeant Chris Depue). By the time you receive this issue of the Illustrated, Lea McKeighan Park South will be open for play. This renovation project came in on budget and on schedule (discounting the weather delay) and certainly above expectations. The features and design represent the “best practices” for park land use, storm water management, and play. The center piece climbing tower provides participants continuous developmental experiences that address hand eye coordination, core strength, extremity strength, balance, creativity and of course socialization. You will not yet find this feature anywhere else in the United States.

The park also includes a 2/3 mile multi-use trail will be an excellent place for a lunch time stroll or Saturday morning work out. There will also be climbing and play features, a zip line, a shelter and plenty of open space for free play.

Of course this is not the only project we have been working on. Our parks construction team completed the design and construction of the new planting beds and fountain at the corner of 4th and Main

Streets in downtown Lee’s Summit. This is the third of several downtown renovation projects we are doing to upgrade our planting and fountain areas.

The Community Garden project has had an overwhelming reception with all garden plots already reserved by citizens anxious to have an area to grow veggies and flowers. We will be excited to get “growing going” this spring.

The highly anticipated second Dog Park being developed off of Victoria Drive is in process. Design is complete and construction has begun. Watch for more information about when this project will be ready.

Upper Banner Park is getting some attention too.

Work has started on building pickleball courts, resurfacing trails and the tennis courts, repairing fencing and improving landscaping.

You may have also seen staff hanging the downtown twinkle lights on the trees in preparation for the Mayor’s Tree Lighting on November 22.

Summer is fun, but fall and winter are great too. Hope to see you at the many activities and events and possibly at the new Foundation planning meetings! Make sure to check out the “invitation” on page 2 encouraging patrons to join the Foundation Friends.

Did You Know

In the book “Stay Well Health Management” it is projected that 33% of adults will have diabetes by 2050 and 75% of these cases will develop cardiovascular disease. In Lee’s Summit that means aproximately 30,500 residents will develop diabetes and 69,000 residents will develop heart disease. You can combate those odds by using the parks, trails, leagues, programs, and facilities offered by LSPR.

WHAT A VIEW

Lee’s Summit Historical Cemetery Corner

Legacy Park Amphitheater

The Sexton’s Register

L

ong ago before the creation of carbonless copies, much less computers, cemetery burial records were kept in bound volumes locked down in the vault in the City Clerk’s office at City Hall. The bound volumes were the only records available to track family lot purchases and the burials that took place in said lots. Those names eventually were used to describe the streets in the town, like Langsford, Colbern, Harris, and Blackwell to name a few.

Company Picnics • Family Reunions Weddings • Special Events and more!

(No extra charge for the view!)

In addition to the city records, families kept burial history in their bibles which can be a source of great history. The sexton’s register also serves as historical record for the area. One example of history discovered in the register shows that in 1867 the town of Strother, Missouri received a donation of land from William B. Howard for the creation of a cemetery. The land was located east of the town. The first burials occurred in 1867 and the first person was a young girl and the first adult was a member of Quantrill’s Raiders who was assassinated

by Union soldiers. The map above shows the platt map from 1877 outlining the Howard Cemetery land.

The register can also be a rich source of history in regards to common diseases, if there was a trend in life span and more. Did you know that before the Civil War most of the residents in the area now called Lee’s Summit, were from Kentucky and Tennessee. After being forced from their homes by Order #11 and not allowed to return, the new residents included families from Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York. Burial records indicate causes of deaths as diseases (such as consumption, scrofula, dropsy,) murders, suicides, accidents (stepping in front of trains) and infant deaths.

Make an impression hosting your next event by inviting guests to the amphitheater overlooking Legacy Lake 3 1/2 acres of tiered seating

(grass & concrete)

Majestic view of Legacy Lake

At this time, all the information from the old journals, obituaries, and family bibles has been entered over the years into a software program.

Grave ownership and burial information may now be found at lsparks. net and then by clicking on Historical Cemeteries and then Interactive Map. This information is updated monthly and includes an interactive map to use in locating the family lots and grave spaces.

The Historical Cemetery Corner is written by Bill Rust, Lee’s Summit Historical Cemetery Sexton.
