USGS Topo · Published 1932About this map
Buttonwillow and the surrounding Kern County landscape appear here as a highly organized agricultural and industrial corridor during the late 1920s. The dominance of large-scale land holdings is evident through the presence of the Miller and Lux Headquarters Ranch, alongside other prominent family-named operations like Palomas Ranch and Elk Grove Ranch. The Southern Pacific railroad line runs parallel to the MC Kittrick Bakersfield Highway, serving as the primary artery for moving cattle and crops from this productive valley floor.
