About this map

Healdsburg serves as the focal point of this 1933 survey, where the Russian River meanders through a landscape defined by ranching, early tourism, and agricultural education. The presence of the Lytton Industrial Home and the Oma-Yah-Ish Indian Reservation reflects the complex social history of Sonoma County during this era. Transportation is dominated by the Northwestern Pacific railroad, which supported smaller settlements like Geyserville, Windsor, and Jim Town.

Rural life is meticulously documented through an extensive network of school districts, including the Lafayette Sch and Lone Redwood Sch. Along the riverbanks, recreational sites such as the Odd Fellows Recreation Club and Mt Jackson Resort illustrate the region's burgeoning identity as a retreat. Notable natural landmarks like the Adam and Eve Redwoods and numerous family-named peaks, such as Bradford Mtn, provide a clear view of the territory before mid-century development altered the valley floor.
