1941 Map of Stayton

About this map

The North Santiam River anchors the southern boundary of this 1941 tactical survey, flowing past the growing agricultural hubs of Stayton and Aumsville. This Marion County landscape reveals a dense network of early 20th-century rural infrastructure, where nearly every township section supports a named schoolhouse like the Oak Ridge School or Kauffman School. The Southern Pacific railroad lines and the Pacific Highway dictate the movement of goods and people between smaller rail stops such as Pratum and Durbin.
