Maps

Find your Place in Spokane Valley

Old Map of Washington State

As the Valley was settled, maps were drawn to help locate landmarks, differentiate between claimed properties, locate irrigation systems, delineate between township boundaries and help others determine directions of travel based on roads marked on the map.

Maps are a record of our cultural archaeology. Schools, railroads, stores and cemeteries can often be located via maps and provide you with valuable research information.
