1910 Map of Jersey

USGS Topo · Published 1932

About this map

The Sacramento River and San Joaquin River converge in this intricate delta landscape, defining a network of reclaimed islands and agricultural tracts. Surveyed between 1906 and 1908, the map illustrates the early 20th-century reliance on river transport, with numerous named steamboat stops and family-named wharves like Larsen Landing, Oulton Landing, and Bradford Landing providing vital links to the interior. Small settlements such as Emmaton and Jersey sit precariously along the levees, while several Pumping Plants underscore the engineering required to manage the low-lying terrain of Sherman Island and Twitchell Island. This era was marked by the transition from large-scale reclamation to established ranching and farming, as indicated by the orderly grid of the Bethel Tract and Webb Tract. The presence of Horseshoe Bend and several deep-water sloughs including Threemile Slough highlights the complex hydrology of this region before modern massive levee expansions.
