1949 Map of Fairfield South

About this map

Suisun Valley meets the labyrinthine marshlands of the State Game Refuge in this detailed late-1940s survey. The landscape is defined by its transition from the agricultural and industrial north, featuring the Rock Quarry and Armijo HS in Fairfield, to the intricate network of sloughs and islands to the south. Private sporting life is remarkably well-documented here, with dozens of duck clubs such as the Teal Club, Ibis Club, and Grizzly Island Club scattered across Joice Island and Montezuma Island. These clubs are linked by a complex system of waterways like Suisun Slough and Joice Slough, which bypass the rising terrain of the Potrero Hills. Transportation corridors including the Southern Pacific and Sacramento Northern railroads provide the backbone for small settlements like Chadbourne and Suisun City, anchoring the region's economy at the edge of Grizzly Bay.
