1940 Map of Brookfield

About this map

Brookfield and Altoona anchor the northern bank of the Columbia River in this tactical survey prepared by the Corps of Engineers. The map illustrates a landscape defined by the river-based economy of the 1940s, featuring industrial sites like the Pillar Rock Cannery and Miller Sands Fish Barn. Moving inland from Grays Bay, the terrain rises into the coastal hills where timber extraction is evident through the Deep River Logging Co Camp and Old Camp Brix Logging Co. Small rural communities are connected by a network of truck trails and roads such as Naselle Loop Road, with local life centered around the Naselle Rosburg Church and several small schoolhouses including Maple Grove School and Eden School. The inclusion of several family-named ranch sites, such as Shannon Ranch and Maki Ranch, provides valuable data for genealogists tracing local land ownership during this era.
