1946 Map of Canaan

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The boundary between New York and Massachusetts defines the eastern edge of this 1940s landscape, where the town of New Lebanon and the village of Canaan serve as primary hubs for a network of valley settlements. The local economy and social structure are reflected in the concentration of educational and social institutions, including the Berkshire Industrial Farm and several rural schoolhouses like the District No 4 Sch and Frisbee Street Sch. The geography is shaped by the Kinderhook Creek and Stony Kill drainages, which historically provided the power and pathways for regional development.
