1916 Map of Romain

USGS Topo · Published 1916

About this map

El Pescadero (Grimes) terrain dominates this 1916 survey, where the foothills of the Coast Range meet the agricultural flats of the Central Valley. The map captures a moment of early development along the Southern Pacific rail line, which passes through the small settlement of Romain. The landscape is defined by the drainage patterns of Hospital Creek and Ingram Creek, which carve through the rising elevation to the west. Evidence of early infrastructure is sparse but specific, including the Concrete Bridge over Ingram Creek and the Rising Sun School situated near the county line. The survey clearly delineates the boundary between San Joaquin Co and Stanislaus Co, following the break in the terrain. This preliminary edition provides a clear record of the area's rural character before the intensification of modern irrigation and expanded transportation networks changed the San Joaquin Valley floor.
