1953 Map of Beaumont

Institutional growth is well-documented, from the San Gorgonio Pass Memorial Hospital to civic landmarks like City Hall and schools such as Hemmerling School. The boundary of the Morongo Indian Res marks the eastern landscape, while watercourses including Smith Creek, Potrero Creek, and the San Gorgonio River define the local drainage patterns. Local genealogists will find value in the placement of Mt View Cem and Sunnyslope Cemetery, which served these growing desert-edge communities.
