1951 Map of Harrisville

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Harrisville serves as the focal point of this Adirondack foothills landscape, where the West Branch Oswegatchie River and the South Branch Oswegatchie River converge. This 1951 survey, based on aerial photographs from 1950, documents the area's mid-century industrial and transport network, notably the New York Central rail line winding through the river valley. The map provides a detailed view of the border between St. Lawrence and Lewis Counties, showing the rural crossroads of Geers Corners and the settlement of Pitcairn. Prominent elevations like Baldface Hill and Cooper Hill overlook a dense network of water bodies, including Lake Bonaparte on the western edge and numerous ponds such as Shiner Pond and Bullhead Pond, which suggest a landscape shaped by timber and water power.
