About this map

The city of Lincoln serves as the focal point of this Placer County survey, where the established town grid meets the agricultural and industrial outskirts of the 1990s. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of Coon Creek, Doty Ravine, and Auburn Ravine, which carve through the valley floor. Evidence of the region’s economic foundations is visible in the prominent Claypit near Clayton, reflecting the area's long history of clay extraction and manufacturing.

Rural life is marked by family-named landmarks and small settlements like Sheridan, Ewing, and the Chamberlain Ranch. Genealogists may find value in the location of Manzanita Cemetery and the unnamed Cemetery near Sheridan. The infrastructure of the era is represented by the Lincoln Regional Airport and the Lincoln Canal, illustrating the managed water and transportation networks essential to this interior California corridor.
