1955 Map of Cecilville

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Salmon River and its south fork carve through the high terrain of the Klamath National Forest, where the settlement of Cecilville serves as a remote hub for 1950s mining and ranching. The landscape is a complex network of gulches and ridges, punctuated by gold-era relics such as the King Solomon Mine, White Bear Mine, and Starveout Mine. This mid-century survey documents a wilderness being navigated by Jeep Trails and forest service infrastructure, including the Crawford Cr Guard Sta and Cecil Point Lookout. Genealogists will note the location of Schoolhouse Flat and family-named operations like Blue Ridge Ranch and Georges Ranch. The map also preserves the locations of earlier habitations that had transitioned to archaeological interest by the 1950s, such as Summerville (Site) and Yoakumville (Site) on the western edge near Graham (Site).
