About this map

Franklin and Enosburg townships define this borderland landscape during the early 1920s, showing a region of dense rural settlements and educational centers just south of the Canada-United States line. The Missisquoi River and Black Creek serve as the primary drainage for a terrain of named ridges like Butternut Ridge and Butternut Ridge, punctuated by prominent heights such as Little Pinnacle. Local industry and commerce are evidenced by Gilberts Tannery and the clustered village centers of Enosburg Falls and Sheldon Springs.

The transportation network relies heavily on the Central Vermont railroad, which follows the river valleys to connect stations at Fairfield Station and Sheldon Junction. For the family historian, the map preserves the exact locations of dozens of numbered district schools, including Pumpkin Village School and Lost Nation School, alongside specialized locales like Patten Camp and Miller Camp on the northern shores of Lake Carmi.
