1949 Map of Olney

About this map

Youngs River and the Lewis and Clark River converge toward the Columbia estuary in this mid-century survey of Clatsop County. The landscape is defined by its intricate tidal waterways, including Peterson Slough, Cooperage Slough, and Battle Creek Slough, which weave through islands like Haven Island and Grant Island. Inland, the terrain transitions into the steep timberlands of Long Ridge, where a network of logging roads and a dedicated Lumber Camp suggest the era's active forest industry. Small communities and rural outposts are connected by the Nehalem Highway, with local life centered around points like the Youngs River Falls Sch and the settlement of Olney. The map preserves the footprint of early development near the Warrenton Reservoir and various creeks like Speelyai Creek and Moosmoos Creek, reflecting a coastal economy rooted in both the river and the ridge.
