1928 Map of Lindsay
USGS Topo · Published 1928About this map
The Rocky Hills and Lindsay Peak Hill rise sharply above the San Joaquin Valley floor, defining the eastern edge of a landscape transitioning into intensive agriculture during the late 1920s. The town of Lindsay serves as a central hub, where the Southern Pacific and Visalia Electric rail lines intersect, facilitating the movement of citrus and other produce. Irrigation infrastructure like the Elephant Back Ditch and the Lewis Creek drainage are vital to the surrounding groves and smaller settlements such as Sierra Heights, El Mirador, and Strathmore. Along the southern border, the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad cuts across the plain near Abilene and Portex. Rural education centers like Sunnyside School and Lewis Creek School anchor these farming communities, while family-named locales like Hawkins and Reynolds mark the foothills.
