As of the 2010 census, the city population was 1,149.[2] The city is named after the Marais des Cygnes River which is a French translation of an Osage appellation meaning "marsh of the swans".[3] HistoryLa Cygne was founded in 1869 as soon as the people were assured of the building of a track for the St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad. A town company was organized and purchased {{convert|1400|acre|km2}} of land, but had only {{convert|140|acre|km2}} laid out as a town site. La Cygne was incorporated on January 14, 1870, and a board of trustees was appointed. In the fall of that year the town had grown so that it had inhabitants enough to organize as a city of the third class, and F. A. Foote was elected the first mayor. The first school was taught in 1869 in Cady's hall. It was a private subscription school and was kept open until 1870, when the public school house was built. It was a commodious two-story brick building containing the graded and high schools. The Methodist church organized in 1870 and soon after built a house of worship. The Presbyterian church was organized the same year but had no building for a year afterward. At an early date La Cygne became a manufacturing point. A flour mill was built in 1870; a bank was started in 1871; the La Cygne organ factory was another early commercial enterprise, but it did not flourish. In 1881 a coal mine was opened, after which it become an important point for the industry. The first newspaper in the town was the Weekly Journal, which first appeared in June 1870.[4] GeographyLa Cygne is located at {{coord|38|20|49|N|94|45|44|W|type:city}} (38.346841, -94.762171).[5] The city is situated on the east bank of the Marais des Cygnes River and only a few miles southwest of the city of Linn Valley.
