About this map

Davenport serves as the focal point of this late 1960s survey, showing the Lincoln County seat as a developed hub of civic and agricultural infrastructure. The town is marked by essential local landmarks including the Lincoln Co Hospital, Municipal Airport, and the County Fairgrounds. A notable historical trace is the Old Railroad Grade passing north of town, reflecting the evolution of transportation in this portion of the Inland Empire.

The surrounding terrain is defined by a series of deep drainage cuts and high points, such as Teel Hill and Trinkle Canyon to the north. These features break up the high plateau landscape, while Cottonwood Creek and Hawk Creek provide the primary drainage. Local social life and industry are evidenced by the Grange Hall situated north of the city and various Gravel Pits that supported the area's infrastructure and road network.
