1952 Map of Saxon

About this map

Agricultural development and water management systems define this landscape along the border of Solano and Yolo counties in the mid-20th century. Large-scale ranching is evident through family-named landmarks such as the Maxwell Ranch, Dana Ranch, and Gilde Ranch. The eastern portion of the map is dominated by the Yolo Bypass, a massive flood control feature that includes the Sacramento River Deep Water Ship Channel and the Toe Drain. The reliance on irrigation and infrastructure is marked by numerous Pump House and Siphon labels, along with an extensive system of levees. Local history is anchored at Tremont Hall and the nearby Tremont Cemetery, while the small settlement of Yolano sits at a rail junction near several Gas Well sites, illustrating the mix of ranching, transportation, and early energy extraction that shaped this part of the Central Valley.
