About this map

New Plymouth serves as the focal point of this irrigation-shaped landscape, where a sophisticated network of waterways supports the agricultural productivity of the Lower Payette Valley. The layout reveals the essential role of water management in this part of Idaho, with the Noble Canal, Farmers Cooperative Canal, and A Line Canal branching off toward outlying fields and the community at Hamilton Corner. The Payette River and Big Willow Creek define the northern terrain, which rises toward the prominent elevation of The Bluffs.

For those researching local family history, the map precisely locates Parkview Cemetery and Kennedy Cemetery, positioned along the major east-west corridors of Idaho St and NW 1st Ave. The landscape is a grid of rural roads and residential clusters, punctuated by river access points like the Blacks Bridge Access Area. This record illustrates the intersection of natural river systems and human engineering that sustained these valley settlements into the early 21st century.
