1945 Map of Galway

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Lake Galway and the southern reaches of Adirondack State Park dominate this landscape, reflecting a 1940s rural economy rooted in small milling hamlets and local crossroads. The mapping reveals a high density of named corners and mills, including Hagedorns Mills and Parkis Mills, which grew along the complex hydrology of Glowegee Creek and Chuctanunda Cr. Notable for local history is the County Sanatorium located near Wiley Corners, a specialized facility situated on the higher elevations above Cadman Creek. The settlement pattern is characterized by numerous family-named landmarks such as Bunn Corners, Holsapple Corners, and Skinner Corners, marking the intersections that served as the social centers for this Saratoga County community during the mid-twentieth century.
