1968 Map of Escalon
USGS Topo · Published 1971About this map
The Escalon area in the late 1960s serves as a critical junction for Central Valley transportation, where the Southern Pacific, Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe, and Tidewater Southern railroads converge. This landscape is defined by its sophisticated irrigation network, including the San Joaquin Main Canal and Tulloch Canal, which sustain the surrounding agricultural fields. Along the southern border, the Stanislaus River meanders past the community of Huntley, while the eastern portion of the map is dominated by the Woodward Res and the Stanislaus County Park. Several rural education centers such as Lone Tree Sch and Burwood Sch appear alongside family-named landmarks like Valley Home Cem and Langworth Cem, providing essential points of interest for genealogists tracing local families in the San Joaquin and Stanislaus county borderlands.
