About this map

The Willamette River and Santiam River converge in this Willamette Valley landscape, shaping the development of Albany and Jefferson. The map illustrates a complex hydraulic network where natural water bodies like Thornton Lake and Waverly Lake meet man-made features such as the Jefferson Ditch. Transportation remains a central theme, shown through the SP Connection Albany rail infrastructure and the Albany Yard, alongside regional aviation hubs like the Albany Municipal Airport and Propst Airfield.

Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous family and community burial grounds, including Riverside Cemetery, Masonic Cemetery, and the Simison-Hale Cemetery. The transition from the river bottomlands to the surrounding hills is marked by prominent local landmarks such as Knox Butte and Hale Butte. This 2011 record preserves the footprint of industrial and residential growth in Millersburg and North Albany during the early 21st century.
