About this map

The Mokelumne River carves a winding path through this Northern San Joaquin Valley landscape, defining the early development of Woodbridge and the growing grid of Lodi. Surveyed in the first decade of the 20th century, the map reveals a transition from the vast rancho era of San Jon De Los Moquelumnes to a dense agricultural and transit corridor. The Southern Pacific railroad serves as the region's backbone, linking settlements like Acampo, Urgon, and Galt.

Hydrological features are particularly prominent, with the river feeding oxbow formations and wetlands like Tracy Lake, Oliver Lake, and Smith Lake. Local infrastructure is well-established, shown through the network of Cherokee Lane and Woodbridge Road, which connect rural landmarks such as North School and local cemeteries to the burgeoning town centers. The map captures the intricate relationship between the waterway and the rail-driven growth of these Central Valley communities.
