About this map

The Oswegatchie River and Black Lake define the drainage and early industry of this Northern New York landscape at the start of the twentieth century. Small rural communities such as Rossie, Oxbow, and Wegatchie are linked by a network of local roads and schools, including the Scotch Settlement School and Laidlaw School. The presence of the Old Iron Works near Somerville points to the region's mineral history, while the Ogdensburg and Hammond R R and the Niagara Falls Line reflect the established rail infrastructure of the era. The map reveals a complex aquatic landscape in the south, where Lake of the Woods, Muskalonge Lake, and Yellow Lake sit amidst a fragmented terrain. This survey provides a precise look at the township boundaries for Morristown, Macomb, and Gouverneur before the significant modernization of the North Country road systems.
