1953 Map of Antioch South

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The northern edge of Antioch gives way to the complex industrial and residential landscape of central Contra Costa County in this mid-century survey. Notable for its documentation of early mining history, the map identifies several historic settlement sites including Somersville, Nortonville, and Stewartville, alongside former extraction points like the Coal Mine Tunnels near West Hartley. These sites sit nestled in the folds of Somerville Canyon and Markley Canyon, reflecting the era's transition from 19th-century resource extraction to a more modern infrastructure.
