About this map

Agricultural development defines this corner of the San Joaquin Valley, where the White River crosses an expansive grid of orchards and vineyards. The landscape is marked by several named loading points and agricultural outposts along the rail corridor, including Radnor, Pagliarulo, and Caratan. These locations, along with Caric and Butera, speak to the region's historical role as a hub for grape and nut production.

On the western edge of the city, the Delano McFarland District Cem serves as a significant genealogical landmark. The map also reveals the rural layout of the northern outskirts, where Sun Valley Dairy and College Ranch stand amidst a network of avenues and roads such as Cecil Ave and Road 112. The presence of Kernell in the southwest further illustrates the dispersed settlement pattern typical of the valley’s industrial-scale farming operations during this era.
