1944 Map of Empire

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

Coos Bay and its complex network of sloughs anchor this coastal landscape during the mid-1940s, revealing a region defined by maritime industry and homesteading. The settlement of Empire sits at the bay's edge, while the coastal reaches are guarded by the Arago LH near Cape Arago State Park. Inland, the map reveals a history of family-owned landholdings, including the Oldland Ranch, Sengstacken Ranch, and Miller Ranch, scattered among the drainages of South Slough.
