About this map

The South Yamhill River valley serves as the central corridor for this 2011 landscape, where the neighboring timber and agricultural hubs of Sheridan and Willamina are detailed. Industrial footprints remain prominent, notably the Pacific Plywood Log Pond and the Willamina Reservoir, reflecting the area's long-standing connection to the wood products industry. The map illustrates a transition from the structured street grids of the towns to the more dispersed rural settlements of Buell, Shipley, and Red Prairie.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several significant burial sites, including the Mennonite Cemetery near Wallace Bridge and the Masonic Cemetery on the northern outskirts of Sheridan. Evidence of the region’s early educational network is preserved through the locations of the Rock Creek School, Fendall School, and Gooseneck School, while smaller aviation sites like the Sheridan Airfield and George Airport mark the rural landscape.
