1922 Map of Carbona

About this map

Tracy stands as a primary rail hub in this early twentieth-century landscape, where the Southern Pacific and Western Pacific lines intersect. The map illustrates a transition from the structured irrigation and agriculture of the northern plains, marked by schools like Jefferson School and New Jerusalem School, into the steep drainages of the Diablo Range to the southwest. This mountainous region is defined by prominent peaks like Mt Oso and Black Butte, hiding remote locales such as Dutch Freds Place and the Buckeye Mines.
