1949 Map of Hammond

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Black Lake and its many islands, including Big Island and Tin Island, dominate this post-war landscape across the St Lawrence and Jefferson county line. The region is defined by a heavy concentration of rural one-room schoolhouses, such as Stark Sch and South Woods Sch, alongside the agricultural and transport hubs of Hammond and Rossie. The New York Central line runs through the western corridor, serving communities like South Hammond and Oakvale Station. To the east, the Oswegatchie River winds through Natural Dam and Wegatchie, supporting local industry and the community at Somerville. Genealogists will find a wealth of burial grounds including Riverside Cem and St Patricks Cem, while landmarks like Pulpit Rock and the Hammond Airport mark the era's physical geography.
