1955 Map of Yoder

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Pudding River and Molalla River basins define the agricultural and residential landscape of central Clackamas County during the mid-1950s. This area is a dense network of small communities and rural landmarks, from Barlow and Canby in the north to the eponymous Yoder in the south. The prevalence of family and community spaces, such as Marks Memorial Park and various religious sites like Smyrna Ch and Rock Creek Ch, suggests a well-established social fabric. For genealogists, the map is particularly valuable for its identified burial grounds, including the Norwegian Cem and Bear Creek Cem. The local economy of the era is evidenced by features like the Gravel Pit near the river and the Southern Pacific railroad lines that facilitated transport across the region. Smaller named areas like Gribble Prairie and Whiskey Hill provide specific geographic context for local history research.
