About this map

Adair Village and the rural reaches of the Willamette Valley anchor this 2017 study of the landscape north of Albany. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent rises including Coffin Butte, Poison Oak Hill, and Hospital Hill, which overlook the complex drainage systems of Soap Cr and Calloway Cr. A network of smaller airfields, such as Flying Tom Airport and Gates Airport, suggests a legacy of local aviation and agricultural utility in this corridor between the foothills and the river plains.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of local burial grounds, including Ridder Cem, Gingles Cem, and Palestine Memorial Church Cem. The map traces the winding course of the Luckiamute River at its confluence with the Willamette River, alongside irrigation and drainage features like the Frazier Cr Ditch. From the northern settlement of Suver to the southern edge at Lewisburg, the map documents the persistent rural character of these agricultural townships.
