About this map

Sanger and its surrounding agricultural landscape in the San Joaquin Valley are defined by a complex network of irrigation infrastructure and rural settlements. This 2015 record shows the intricate waterway system required for local farming, featuring the Fowler Switch Canal, Centerville Kingsburg Canal, and Hansen Canal. These man-made channels intersect the natural course of the Kings River and Cameron Slough to the east.

Genealogists and local historians will find several burial sites preserved on this sheet, including Sanger Cem, Bethel Cem, and Prairie Cem. The map provides detailed coverage of the residential grids of Del Rey and the neighborhood of Clotho, while numerous family-named ditches and canals, such as McCall Ditch and Hanke Ditch, reveal the historical water rights and land management patterns of Fresno County.
