About this map

Evans Mills and the winding Black River anchor this topographic view of Jefferson County, where the landscape is marked by a network of historic crossroads and agricultural settlements. The area shows a transition from the established villages of Felts Mills and Calcium to the smaller hamlets of Dutch Settlement and Gould Corners. Genealogists will find numerous family-history markers, including Hoover Cem, Sanford Corners Cem, and the Sheepfold Cem located near Saint James Lake.

The cultural heritage of the region is further evidenced by the Leray Mansion and the recreational legacy of the Black River Drive-In. Waterways like Pleasant Cr and Indian River cross the terrain, defining the boundaries of local farms and estates. This map serves as a detailed record of the road systems and property distributions that connect Young Farms to the more densely settled corridors along West Cr.
