About this map

Lake Champlain dominates the eastern edge of this Clinton County landscape, where the jagged shoreline of Monty Bay and Treadwell Bay meets the rural agricultural lands of upstate New York. The settlement of Beekmantown and nearby East Beekmantown anchor the southwest, while the small hamlet of Ingraham sits centrally along the main north-south corridor. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage systems, including the Little Chazy River, Dead Creek, and Riley Brook, which carve through the lowlands between Stratton Hill and the coast.

Genealogists will find several notable burial grounds, including Doane Cem near Guay Creek and the Point Au Roche Cem situated near the prominent peninsula of Point Au Roche. The map records a mix of older thoroughfares like Old Rte 348 and modern infrastructure, illustrating the enduring nature of these lakeside communities. From the marshes around Lake Alice to the various points such as Minnetoska Point and Savage Point, the geography remains deeply tied to the waterfront.
