1961 Map of Hammond

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Black Lake and its intricate shoreline of bays and islands dominate the eastern portion of this map, reflecting the water-rich landscape of St. Lawrence County. The village of Hammond serves as the central hub, situated along the New York Central Railroad corridor. This rail line provided a critical transportation link for the small agrarian and riverside settlements of the early 1960s, including North Hammond, South Hammond, and the hamlet of Oakvale. To the south, the Indian River winds through Rossie, where the terrain transitions toward the neighboring Grass Creek drainage. For the genealogist, the map preserves the locations of several burial grounds, such as Pleasant Valley Cem, Fineview Cem, and Rarick Cem, alongside the Central Sch, marking the community foundations of the mid-20th century before significant modern development altered the rural character of the region.
