1949 Map of Georgetown
USGS Topo · Published 1975About this map
Coloma and the surrounding gold-bearing hills are the focus of this mid-century topographic study, capturing the landscape of the Mother Lode a century after the initial rush. The map meticulously documents the legacy of James Marshall's 1848 discovery, identifying the Gold Discovery Site State Historical Monument, the James W Marshall State Historical Monument, and the J W Marshall Shop. This area, deeply carved by the South Fork American River, shows a transition from active resource extraction to historical preservation and small-town stability.
