1943 Map of Boylston

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

Boylston Center and its surrounding rural hamlets are mapped here during the early 1940s, a time when this section of the Tug Hill region was defined by small-scale farming and the conservation efforts of the Littlejohn State Game Refuge. The landscape is etched by a dense network of waterways including Sandy Creek, Fox Creek, and Trout Brook, which dictated the placement of early settlements and road crossings. A remarkable number of local schoolhouses are visible, from School No 4 near Winona to School No 13 on Diamond Road, indicating a dispersed but active population. The terrain reflects the transition from open farmland to more heavily wooded areas, with many roads like Vorea Road and Smartville Road connecting family landmarks like Frederick Corner and La Plants Corners. Genealogists will find particular value in the placement of these schools and the St Joseph Cem near Smartville.
