Pleasant Ridge Cemetery, est. 1900 
150H (135th) and Rosehill Rd 
Lenexa, Oxford Twp, Johnson, KS  
 
Cemetery Contact: 
Pleasant Ridge Cemetery Assication 
 
Cemetery Ownership: 
The cemetery became incorporated into the town of Lenexa in the 1940s and a cemetery 
company was formed for the maintenance of the cemetery. This cemetery company has 
now been passed down to the care of the current sexton, however no record burial records 
or lot maps were passed down.  
 
Transcriber's Note: 
This is a complete transcription by reading and photographing the gravestones. 
 
Cemetery Condition: 
This old cemetery is mowed and pretty well taken care of, though overgrown around the 
edges and fence. Some of the stones are very close to the fence and are becoming grown 
over. The cemetery is fronted by a beautiful white picket fence and sign. There are many 
soft stones obliterated by time, some broken, and some missing. Some graves are marked 
with piece of concrete with the name etched in, while other are marked by a large rock, 
and still others are known to be unmarked. The sexton also notes periods of vandalism.  
 
About the Cemetery: 
This cemetery is an example of a pioneer community cemetery for some of the first 
settlers to Kansas after the Shawnee Indians were removed to Oklahoma in the 1860s. 
The earliest legible or known burial is in 1865. According to the sexton, the cemetery 
was used through 1939. It is noted, however, that one burial has taken place since 1939.
