1952 Map of Dozier

About this map

Ulatis Creek and Sweany Creek meander through this Solano County landscape, which reflects a complex water management system of levees and man-made waterways. The presence of the Hastings Tract and numerous sloughs like Maine Prairie Slough and Lindsey Slough illustrates the low-lying, riparian character of the region. Small agricultural and transit hubs such as Binghamton, Dozier, and Olcott are scattered across the sheet, while the Maine Prairie (Site) and Maine Prairie School mark the locations of early community centers. To the north, a significant Naval Reservation borders the rural acreage. The map also captures specialized infrastructure like the Telephone Substation and various pump houses that supported the irrigation and drainage necessary for the local economy. From the industrial Gas Well to the engineered Calhoun Cut, the sheet documents the transition from natural wetlands to a highly modified agricultural and utility corridor.
