1900 Map of Coos Bay

About this map

Coos Bay and the winding Coquille River define this coastal landscape at the end of the nineteenth century, showing a region shaped by its intricate waterways. The settlement of Marshfield serves as a primary hub on the bay, surrounded by an extensive network of tidal channels including Isthmus Slough, Coalbank Slough, and Catching Slough. Further south, the map details the riverfront towns of Coquille, Riverton, and Prosper, leading toward the coastal port of Bandon at the river's mouth.
