1919 Map of Van Zandt

About this map

Industrial activities and small timber-era settlements define this landscape along the United States - Canada border just after World War I. The region's natural resources are under active extraction, evidenced by the Olympic Portland Cement Company and the International Lime Plant near Limestone Junction. Along the waterways, the timber economy is visible through the Millers Shingle Mill and Cooperative Shingle Mill. The Nooksack River and its forks serve as the primary geographical anchors, supporting a network of small communities such as Van Zandt, Deming, and Maple Falls. Transportation is dominated by two major rail lines, the Chicago Milwaukee and St Paul RR and the Northern Pacific RR, which facilitate the movement of goods from remote sites like the Old Nooksack Mine. Local life centers on rural hubs including the Welcome Grange and several community schools.
