1935 Map of Frenchville

Inland from the river, the landscape transitions to a network of family-named heights and local schools. Dozens of small schoolhouses, such as Longfellow Sch, Roosevelt Sch, and Jefferson Sch, are distributed among the hills to serve the rural farming population. The southern portion of the map centers on the northern reach of Long Lake, where the terrain rises toward Morin Mtn and Cyr Mtn, illustrating the dispersed settlement pattern of the St. John Valley before the mid-century.
