1956 Map of Laurelwood

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The rolling agricultural landscape and rising terrain of the Chemawa Hills are documented here during a period of rural transition in the mid-1950s. Centered around the community of Laurelwood, the map highlights the prominence of the Laurelwood Academy and various local institutions that anchored this corner of Washington and Yamhill counties. Evidence of shifting educational and social patterns appears in the several decommissioned buildings, such as St Peters Sch and Iowa Hill Sch, while active sites like Spring Hill School and Hill School reflect the continuing needs of the valley farms.
