1948 Map of French Corral

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

French Corral and the surrounding gold-country landscapes of Yuba and Nevada Counties are captured here just after the Second World War. The terrain is defined by the deep canyons of the Middle Yuba River and the South Yuba River, which meet at Rice Crossing near the center of the map. Mining history is evident at the San Juan Mine (Abandoned) and numerous river bars like Condemned Bar and Starvation Bar. The presence of the Englebright Reservoir along the western boundary indicates the mid-century infrastructure shifts in the Sierra foothills. Local life is anchored by family-named landmarks such as the Schwartz Ranch and Richards Ranch, while educational and community centers like the Pleasant Valley Sch and a local Cem provide specific points of interest for genealogical research in these small, scattered settlements.
