1904 Map of Brandon

USGS Topo · Published 1935

About this map

Otter Creek serves as the central artery of this Vermont landscape, winding through a corridor of low-lying wetlands and the expansive Cedar Swamp west of the Green Mountain foothills. The rail-and-river economy of the early twentieth century is clearly visible, with the Rutland R. R. connecting key transfer points like Leicester Junction and Salisbury Sta. to the larger market. To the east, the terrain rises sharply toward Mt. Moosalamoo, sheltering recreational and industrial landmarks including Lake Dunmore and the Falls of Lana. The map captures the organized layout of the village of Brandon alongside the Neshobe River, a site of early manufacturing. Further south, the map details the transition into more rural townships, highlighting the presence of Hyde Manor and numerous scattered ponds like Silver Lake and Fern Lake that defined the region's early tourism and agrarian character.
