1963 Map of Heuvelton

About this map

Heuvelton serves as the primary hub of this northern St. Lawrence County landscape, where the New York Central railroad crosses the Oswegatchie River. The terrain is defined by the convergence of several major water systems, including the expansive Black Lake and its Lower Big Bay to the west, and the southern reaches of Mud Lake feeding into the Fish Creek drainage. The map reveals a rural network of farm-to-market roads like Horse Shoe Road and Bloodough Road, connecting small clusters of settlement such as Kokomo Corners and the curiously named Lost Village. Genealogists will find several small burial grounds documented across the townships of Depeyster and De Kalb, including Brier Hill Cem and Hill Crest Cem, often located near prominent local elevations like Barter Hill.
