About this map

The Portland and Oregon City Railway winds through the hills of Clackamas County, providing a primary transportation link between the growing settlements of Gresham and Boring during the early twentieth century. This survey reveals a landscape transitioning from pioneer homesteads to established agricultural communities, marked by an infrastructure of local education and faith. Schools such as Sycamore School, Buckley School, and Pleasant School are distributed across the terrain, serving the families of Powell Valley and Pleasant Home.
