About this map

The Missisquoi River valley serves as the central artery for this northern Vermont borderland, where the Central Vermont and St Johnsbury and Lake Champlain railroads converge. The map documents a landscape defined by small agrarian hamlets and an extensive network of rural school districts, such as School No 7 and the Pumpkin Village School. At Enosburg Falls, the river’s power supported concentrated settlement, while elsewhere, industry appears in more isolated forms like Gilberts Tannery.

Northern hills near the Canada United States border are anchored by Lake Carmi, surrounded by seasonal locations like Patten Camp and Miller Camp. The detailed survey of Fairfield and Bakersfield reveals a dense pattern of family-named landmarks and geographic features, including Butternut Ridge and Giddings Hill, providing a clear view of the region's social and topographic organization in the early 1920s.
