1943 Map of Vernonia

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

The Nehalem River meanders through this portion of Columbia County, anchoring a landscape shaped by early timber interests and riverside settlement. The town of Vernonia serves as the primary hub, where the United Railways line terminates, reflecting the area's mid-century reliance on rail for transporting forest products. This 1940s topography, prepared by the Corps of Engineers, U. S. Army, captures several small communities like Pittsburg and Natal during a period when rural education was still localized at institutions such as Natal Sch and Pleasant Hill Sch.
