About this map

Hillsboro and the rural communities of Scholls and Farmington anchor this survey of the Tualatin River valley. The landscape is a network of water management and local crossings, including Rood Bridge, Harris Bridge, and Scholls Bridge. Smaller settlements like Witch Hazel, Midway, and Laurel are interspersed among a high concentration of private airfields such as Twin Oaks Airpark and Harvey's Acres Airport.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds, including Saint Matthews Cem, Lewis Cem, and the Mount Olive Cem of Laurel. The terrain transitions from the low-lying Jackson Bottom to the rising elevations of the Chehalem Mountains and Laurel Ridge in the south. The presence of numerous reservoirs, like Wandell Reservoir and Ettinger Reservoir, reflects the area's agricultural and hydrologic character in the modern era.
