1898 Map of Silver City

USGS Topo · Published 1898

About this map

Silver City anchors this 1890s survey of Owyhee County, Boise, and Canyon County, documenting the height of the silver and gold mining boom. The southern portion of the map is dominated by intensive underground operations, with the Black Jack Mine, Trade Dollar Mine, and Poorman Mine clustered around Florida Mt and War Eagle Mt. Nearby company towns like De Lamar, Dewey, and Democrat provide a clear view of the settlement patterns established by the mining industry before the turn of the century.
