About this map

The agricultural landscape of Marion County unfolds between the Howell Prairie and the Waldo Hills, defined by a complex network of small reservoirs and drainage systems. This area is heavily influenced by the winding course of the Pudding River and its tributaries, including the South Fork Pudding River and Drift Creek. The land use is primarily rural, with numerous named water features such as Bye Reservoir, Schmid Reservoir, and the S-M-S Reservoir Number One supporting the local farming economy.

Genealogists and local historians will find several burial sites throughout the region, including Mount Hope Cemetery, Apostolic Cemetery, and the Kimsey-Walker Cemetery. The map also captures infrastructure like the Iron Crown Airport and a dense grid of rural roads, such as Kaufman Rd NE and Cascade Hwy NE, which connect the scattered homesteads. These landmarks provide a detailed look at the settlement patterns of this Willamette Valley region in the early 21st century.
