1948 Map of Hinesburg

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The La Platte River and Lewis Creek anchor this Vermont landscape, which traces the agricultural and early industrial character of the region during the mid-20th century. Based on 1948 fieldwork with 1980s updates, the map highlights the settlement patterns of Hinesburg and South Hinesburg, where the local economy was historically tied to the numerous quarries and a sawmill visible along the watercourses. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations such as Lincoln Hill, Texas Hill, and Mount Pritchard, while Lake Iroquois sits at the northern boundary. Smaller communities like Mechanicsville and Rhode Island Corner appear alongside family-named landmarks and rural infrastructure, including a Windmill and a small Cem. The map also captures the convergence of several township boundaries, including St George, Williston, and Monkton, showing how property and civic lines respect the natural ridges and valleys of the Green Mountain foothills.
