About this map

The Calapooia River meanders through this portion of Linn County, anchoring the small settlements of Crawfordsville and Holley along its banks. The terrain transitions from the river valley into significant elevations such as Scott Mountain and Georges Knob, while the southern reaches of the map touch upon the headwaters of the Mohawk River. Local infrastructure is defined by its historic crossings, specifically the Crawfordsville Bridge and Matlock Bridge, which facilitate travel along the corridor of Or-228.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several burial sites, including the Crawfordsville Union Cem and the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Cem, the latter situated just west of the town center. The landscape is also marked by numerous creeks like Brush Cr and W Brush Cr, which carve through the foothills. This map documents a region where agricultural river bottoms meet the timbered slopes of the Cascade foothills, with several Bureau of Land Management roads providing access into the higher ridges.
