1961 Map of Scholls

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Tualatin River snakes through the center of this landscape, its tight oxbows defining the agricultural flats between Chahalem Mountains and Cooper Mountain. This early 1960s survey, with updates from the 1970s, captures the transition of Washington County from a purely rural river valley into an expanding suburban frontier. While smaller hamlets like Scholls, Farmington, and Laurel anchor the southern reaches, the northern portion shows the growth of Reedville and Hazeldale along the Southern Pacific railroad line. Local history is preserved in landmarks such as the Witch Hazel School, Grange Hall, and the Pleasant Hill Cemetery. The mapping of small farm roads like Burkhalter Road and Kinnaman Rd reflects a network of family-owned tracts and orchards that preceded the modern residential footprint.
