About this map

Eagle Point and the industrial hub of White City anchor this Jackson County survey, revealing a landscape defined by an extensive water management network. The Medford Irrigation District Canal and numerous holding basins like Agate Reservoir, Mayes Reservoir, and the three Hoover Ponds illustrate the region's reliance on managed water for agriculture and local utility. The western edge follows the course of the Rogue River, where Tou Velle State Park and the Sutton on Rogue Airport mark the transition from the riverbank to the rising terrain of Long Mountain.

Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local burial grounds, including the Veterans Cemetery, Antelope Cemetery, and Nichols Cemetery. The map also captures the aviation footprint of the era, from Burrill Airfield to the larger airport near the river, and the academic presence of the Antelope School. This layout reflects a modernizing rural district where historic family-named landmarks like Coker Butte and Tater Hill persist alongside growing residential corridors.
