About this map

Turner and the surrounding Willamette Valley landscape are defined by an intricate network of waterways and early burial grounds. The community is situated along Mill Creek, which flows near the Turner Post Office and Franzen Reservoir. The area is notably dense with historical resting places, from the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Cemetery to the Penitentiary Annex Cemetery and Shaw Catholic Cemetery.

Agricultural and infrastructure patterns are evident in the presence of the Marion Ditch and the Main Canal, which divert water across the plains toward the North Santiam River. To the south, the terrain rises at Parrish Gap near Marion, where the Marion Friends Cemetery serves the local community. Smaller landmarks like the Flying E Airfield and several named ponds, such as McDonald Pond, illustrate the specialized land use in this part of Marion County during the early 21st century.
