About this map

Ballston and the surrounding agricultural valleys of Yamhill County are defined by an intricate network of water management and rural landmarks. The South Yamhill River meanders across the northern portion of the map, while the southern landscape is characterized by numerous small reservoirs such as Walker Reservoir Number Two, Fast Reservoir, and Buhler Reservoir, reflecting the region's reliance on irrigation and water storage.

Settlement patterns reveal a series of small community centers and rural corners, including Perrydale, Broadmead, and Byerley Corner. For those researching local heritage, several burial grounds are preserved across the landscape, from the United Brethren Cemetery near Bellevue to the Pleasant Hill Cemetery and Ball Cemetery further south. The map documents a modern snapshot of these communities, where established local roads like SW Ballston Rd and SW Bellevue Hwy connect scattered homesteads and farming operations.
