About this map

The Chehalis River valley serves as the primary corridor for settlement in this western Lewis County landscape, where the small communities of Doty and Dryad are situated. This area reflects a long-standing timber and agricultural economy, with the southern portion of the map showing the concentration of rural residences and infrastructure along Doty Dryad Rd and Leudinghaus Rd. Genealogists may find value in the location of the Sylvan Cem north of the river.

Rising sharply from the river valley, the Doty Hills and Bucks Knob dominate the central and northern terrain. These uplands are defined by a dense network of drainage systems, including the N Fork Lincoln Cr, S Fork Lincoln Cr, and the Fall River, which carve through the high ground. The map also records smaller localities such as Murnen and Hilda, providing a detailed view of the regional geography as it existed in the late 2010s.
