1953 Map of Cooperstown

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Cooperstown stands as a rail-dependent hub along the Sierra Railroad in this mid-century survey of the Stanislaus and Tuolumne county border. The landscape is defined by the sophisticated water management systems of the San Joaquin Valley, including the Modesto Main Canal, Main Canal, and numerous irrigation laterals. To the south, the Tuolumne River corridor reveals the heavy industrial footprint of gold mining, with extensive Dredge Tailings lining the banks near Turlock Lake State Park. Small rural settlements like Warnersville and Rydberg are connected by local routes such as Barnett Road, while the Roberts Ferry School and Diamond S Ranch provide specific landmarks for genealogical research. The map illustrates a transitional period where traditional ranching and the remnants of industrial dredging coexist with modern reservoir-based recreation at Turlock Lake.
