Washington State Library Digital Collections - Historical Maps
From the desk of Jeff Martin
The State Archives and the State Library hold extensive map collections dealing with the Washington State and the surrounding region. This new blog post shows two more examples. The first map shows military stations occupied and abandoned as of January 1881; railroads existing and projected; wagon roads, and lighthouses. The map has been reduced in size for presentation.
The next map shows an emigrant wagon road to California in addition to selected features of Washington, Oregon, and Idaho.
