1904 Map of Chautauqua

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

Chautauqua Lake dominates this 1902 survey, serving as the central artery for a region defined by its water-based transport and lakeside settlements. The map illustrates a thriving early 20th-century landscape where a dedicated Steamboat Route connects prominent points like Bemus Point and Victoria, while the Chautauqua Lake RR and Jamestown and Chautauqua RR hug the shorelines. To the southeast, the industrial hub of Jamestown sits at the head of the Chadakoin River, while smaller communities such as Celoron and Lakewood show the early residential expansion along the water. Beyond the lake, the map records rural agriculture and family-named landmarks like Starr Farm and Alden Corners. Notable topographic details include several prominent points reaching into the lake, such as Long Pt. and Cheney Pt., and the western village of Panama, set against the hills of Harmony.
