1967 Map of Rockville

About this map

Rockville (Site) sits at the heart of this high-desert landscape along the border of Oregon and Idaho, where the former settlement's footprint is preserved through its remaining institutional landmarks. In the late 1960s, the Rockville Sch and Rockville Cem served as the primary coordinates for this community, which was once a vital stop on regional travel routes. Evidence of early transit history is marked by the Stage Station Site near The Rocks in the northeast, while the terrain is defined by dramatic drainages like Succor Creek, McBride Creek, and Pole Creek. The topography is punctuated by distinctive formations such as The Whitehouse and Crisman Hill, surrounded by numerous named water sources including Oreida Spring and Mud Spring, which supported the livestock and homesteads of Malheur County during this era.
