1967 Map of Roseville

About this map

Roseville and Rocklin appear during a period of significant expansion in South Placer County, with urban growth revisions highlighting the transition from agricultural ranching to suburban development. The Southern Pacific railroad corridor serves as the primary spine for this landscape, flanked by established family holdings such as the R F Fiddyment Ranch and W F Fiddyment Ranch. While the southern reaches show the rise of recreational spaces like the Sierra View Country Club and Diamond Oaks Municipal Golf Course, the northern terrain remains dominated by watercourses like Pleasant Grove Creek and Auburn Ravine. Distinctive local markers include the Lincoln Rodeo Grounds at the map's northern edge and Telegraph Hill overlooking the orchards and sloughs. This document records the intricate network of ranch roads and early subdivisions before the massive late-20th-century build-out altered the historic cattle and orchard lands.
