About this map

Jimtown and the surrounding Alexander Valley landscape are defined by a historic viticultural tradition and family-named landmarks along the Russian River. This 2012 survey reveals a dense network of wine production facilities, including Sausal Winery, Soda Rock Winery, and Simi Winery, alongside long-established family sites. For genealogists, the map provides precise locations for the Cyrus Alexander Family Cem, Hall Cem, and Beeson Cem, which anchor the local history of these rural settlements.

The terrain transitions from the river valley floor to prominent heights like Black Mountain and Castle Rock to the northeast. Transportation routes such as Geysers Rd and Pine Flat Rd wind through the hills, connecting outlying points like Douglas Ranch and Ridge Ranch to the valley center. The presence of Lytton Lake and the winding Maacama Cr in the south highlights the importance of the local watershed to both the agricultural economy and the rural residential clusters at Lytton and Chiquita.
