1926 Map of Lethent

About this map

The agricultural and industrial landscape of the southern San Joaquin Valley is clearly defined in this 1920s survey. The small settlement of Lethent serves as a focal point, supported by two local institutions, San Jose School and Lethent School. The region's early 20th-century economic drivers are visible through the prominent Southern Pacific railroad line and an industrial Oil Pumping Sta. The hydrology of the area is dominated by the Kings River and its branches, the North Fork Kings River and Clarks Fork, which dictate the local topography and boundary lines between Fresno and Kings counties. A high-voltage transmission line belonging to the San Joaquin Light and Power Corporation bisects the terrain, illustrating the infrastructure required to power the region's expanding irrigation and petroleum operations during this period.
