1951 Map of Monument
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
The North Fork and Middle Fork of the John Day River converge near the settlement of Monument in this mid-century topographic record. This area of eastern Oregon is characterized by a high-elevation landscape of named ridges and drainages, much of which is encompassed by the Umatilla National Forest. The map documents early infrastructure and land use, including a Quarry near Kimberly Road and a Gaging Sta along the river. Of particular interest to local historians are the indicators of earlier community life, such as the Top School (Aban'd) and a riverside Cem. Landmark names like Jack of Clubs, Johnny Cake Mtn, and Monument Mtn provide specific geographical anchors for researchers tracing family history or early land grants in Grant and Morrow counties.
