Pleasant Valley Township was set off in 1858 and first given the name of
Machas, which was afterwards changed by the county board to its present 
name.  It is principally a farming country with good land and prosperous
people.  It contains fifty-four square miles, and is oblong in shape, 
being six miles wide from east to west, and nine miles long from north
to south.  The water supply is ample, Low's creek, Pine and Clear creeks
intersecting the country in almost every direction.  Fine homes and farms
are to be found here and happiness and prosperity abound.
