1918 Map of Fairview

USGS Topo · Published 1922

About this map

The small settlement of Fairview occupies the northeast corner of this early twentieth-century survey, situated at the terminus of a local rail line. The Colusa and Lake railroad provides a critical transport link through this portion of the Sacramento Valley, connecting the rural landscape to broader commerce. The topography is defined by the transition from the level floor of Glenn Valley into the prominent ridges and canyons to the west. This map is particularly interesting for its documentation of a Preliminary Edition Unsurveyed Area, leaving a significant portion of the western territory as a blank canvas during this phase of the State of California Department of Engineering collaboration. Hydrological features like the Glenn Valley Slough and the winding course of Freshwater Creek illustrate the natural drainage patterns that shaped early land use and ranching in the region.
