    I don't think there are too many of these floating around! Fresno was pretty small back then. There's a blue drawn line where someone mapped out their very simple route - maybe when they purchased this map new?

      i just looked at this closer and it doesn't say that this map was made then, but the city was incorporated then. i wonder when the map was made?

      Sometime between 1891 & 1903.
      Roeding park is not on this map, the family donated land for it in beginning in 1903.
