1956 Map of St Paul

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Willamette River defines the western edge of this Marion County landscape, winding past gravel deposits like Ray Bar and Yamhill Bar. The fertile lands of Mission Bottom transition into a structured grid of agricultural roads, where the historic settlement of Champoeg and the community of St Paul serve as local anchors. This mid-century survey reflects a period of evolving transportation, capturing the transition from traditional rail to modern highway infrastructure. The Oregon Electric line and the newly established Baldock Freeway intersect near the growing eastern outskirts of West Woodburn. Local landmarks including the Fairfield Cemetery, Champoeg Cem, and the St Louis School provide essential touchstones for those tracing family history in the Willamette Valley. Small reservoirs and unnamed creeks irrigation networks further illustrate the intensive rural development of the era.
