About this map

The Umpqua River snakes through this Douglas County landscape, defining the character of the settlement at Kellogg. This 1990 provisional survey records a river-centered community where navigation and land use are dictated by the deep bends of the water, marked by features such as Smith Ferry Rapids, Maupin Bar, and Jones Bar. The presence of the Kellogg Grange Hall and the Dimmick Cemetery near the riverbank suggests a long-standing social and familial hub for local residents.

Upland from the river, the terrain rises toward Bell Mountain and Heddin Bluff, dissected by numerous drainages including Mehl Creek, Cedar Creek, and McGee Creek. For genealogists and local historians, the map preserves the locations of family-named sites like Wells Cem and the small Quarry near the main road. Public spaces are also noted along the river's edge, including Madison Wayside and Hutchinson Wayside, reflecting the area's role for travelers and recreation.
