Tract 67 - the McGee Tract
Tract 67, the McGee Tract, with 157.20 acres as surveyed by Kellersberger Image: Courtesy Berkeley Public Library.
This close up of the McGee Tract from the
Kellersberger Map of 1856 shows one of
several errors in the Map — the creeks in the
Tract. The creek to the left is probably
Strawberry Creek, but there is no record of a
creek to the right that joins Strawberry Creek
to the east. And the division of Strawberry
Creek into a North and a South Fork to the
east is also not shown.
