Hunting for the latest Logan County plat book? It's a printed atlas of landownership, usually by township, and it's handy for land around Page City. This Logan County guide covers: how the atlas is organized, where to find editions, and how the county viewer fills the gaps.
The Logan County plat book: start here
For acreage around Monument, plat books are commercial atlases, that map ownership across the countryside, page by page across the county.
The free map to start with
Property in and around Winona appear on the ORKA parcel viewer, free to use and open without a login. If you only know roughly where the land is, follow Interstate 70 on the aerial and select the outline. For property near Winona, write down the parcel ID from that panel; every office in the county asks for it first.
What the map can't tell you
In and around Page City, acreage on the record is a tax-roll number; just a licensed surveyor sets the real corners on the ground. For acreage around Winona, owner names and values update on a schedule, so a deed recorded last month might lag behind.
Land on the county line
Logan County meets Gove County, Scott County, Sherman County, Thomas County, and Wallace County, and each of those keeps its own parcel map. Ground near Monument that runs to the line may be split across two assessors' files, so look at the adjacent map before you assume the acreage. For acreage around Monument, our state page links each bordering county map for Kansas.
Editions and availability
Not every county has a current edition, try the county extension office, recorder's office or library near Page City.
Between editions
For a tract near Winona, the ORKA parcel viewer is updated more often than any atlas, across the county.
Who handles what
For assessment questions about property around Winona are handled by the County Appraiser, which maintains the tax roll. Zoning, permits and septic questions near Monument need the planning or permitting office, town or county, depending on location.
Where the recorded documents are
In and around Page City, the map is an index, not the title: deeds, subdivision plats and easements for parcels in the county sit with the Register of Deeds. If you're looking near Winona, bring the document number shown in the record panel so staff can find the deed fast.

How land is described here

Plat book vs. recorded plat
With a lot near Russell Springs, don't confuse the atlas with a recorded subdivision plat: the recorded plat at the Register of Deeds is a legal document, while the atlas is a reference.
On site with the map
The parcel map usually runs in a mobile browser, which helps when you're standing on land near Monument, but coverage can be spotty out of town. A printout of the tract near Page City keeps working without signal.
