1952 Map of Saxon

About this map

The Sacramento Northern railroad cuts a diagonal path through this agricultural landscape on the border of Solano and Yolo counties. During this early 1950s period, the region is defined by large family holdings and established ranching operations such as Maxwell Ranch, Dana Ranch, and Vaughn Ranch. To the east, the Yolo By-Pass indicates an area subject to inundation during periods of high water, emphasizing the managed hydrological nature of the Central Valley. Small community centers and rail stops like Saxon, Yolano, and Libfarm serve as local hubs for the surrounding farms. Genealogical interest is anchored by Tremont Hall and the nearby Tremont Cem, while early industrial development is visible through several Gas Wells and an extensive network of levees, pumps, and a siphon used to control the seasonal flow of water.
