1916 Map of Buffalo Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1922

About this map

Rio de los Americanos defines the western landscape of this territory, where early Sacramento County land grants like the Omochumne area begin to transition into the foothills. The map reveals a rural infrastructure centered on the Sacramento and Jackson Road and the (Placerville Br) railroad line. This 1916 edition is particularly notable for its large "Preliminary Edition Unsurveyed Area" in the center, capturing a moment when the USGS was still actively documenting the topographic details of the drainage basins for Deer Creek and Carson Creek. Local community life is anchored by the Highland School, situated at a key crossroads, providing a specific point of interest for genealogists tracing early educational sites in the region before modern suburban expansion.
