About this map

Silverton serves as the focal point of this Marion County landscape, where the waters of Silver Creek and the Pudding River converge. The topography transitions from the agricultural flats of Howell Prairie in the northwest to the more varied elevations of the Waldo Hills in the southwest. This area is characterized by an extensive network of water management features, including the Stadeli Reservoir, Urban Reservoir, and Barnes Brothers Reservoir, which reflect the region's intensive irrigation and agricultural heritage.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the distribution of family and community burial sites across the township lines. The map identifies several distinct locations, including Mount Hope Cem, Pratum Cem, Apostolic Cem, Kimsey-Walker Cem, and Dickens Cem. Transportation and infrastructure are represented by the Iron Crown Airport and a dense grid of rural roads such as Cascade Hwy NE and Silverton Rd NE, connecting scattered farmsteads and agricultural operations throughout the Willamette Valley hinterland.
