1965 Map of Herndon

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The San Joaquin River carves a winding path through the center of this mid-1960s landscape, serving as the physical boundary between Madera and Fresno counties. The southern half of the sheet is dominated by the rapid expansion of Fresno, showing a dense urban grid that includes major educational and religious landmarks such as Fresno State College, St Agnes Hospital, and Roosevelt High Sch. The region's agricultural and transit roots are evidenced by the prominent corridors of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe and Southern Pacific railroads, which support smaller agricultural hubs like Herndon, Gregg, and Irrigosa. Extensive irrigation infrastructure, including the Madera Canal and Herndon Canal, illustrates the engineered water systems essential to the San Joaquin Valley. To the north, the terrain transitions into more open ranch land and orchards, punctuated by family-named landmarks like Circle M Ranch.
