1920 Map of Derby

About this map

The Dominion of Canada border defines the northern edge of this Orleans County survey, where the international line cuts directly through Derby Line and Beebe Plain. The landscape is a network of small agricultural corners and crossroads, many bearing the names of early local families such as Kingsbury Cor. and Flanders Corner. The Canadian Pacific R.R. and Boston & Maine R.R. converge at Newport, facilitating a timber and dairy economy that relied on the rail lines snaking alongside the Barton River and the western shores of Lake Memphremagog. Internal transit is further illustrated by the inclusion of Dutton Road, a rare named thoroughfare for this era. From the depths of Willoughby Lake to the heights of Barton Mountain, the map details a region transitioning into the early 20th century while maintaining its 19th-century settlement patterns.
