1926 Map of Indian Stream

About this map

Indian Stream flows south through the northernmost tip of New Hampshire in this mid-century look at the international border with Quebec. The landscape is defined by the logging and sporting heritage of Coos County, featuring numerous remote outposts such as Depot Camp, Greeley Camp, and Cowen Hill Camp. The southern portion of the sheet shows the transition from timberlands to established settlements near the Connecticut River. The construction of the dam creating Lake Francis reshaped the local geography, situated just south of Back Lake. Small community hubs are visible through institutions like the Clarksville Town Hall and a network of rural schoolhouses, including the Indian Stream School and Wheeler School. To the east, the waters of First Connecticut Lake mark the edge of the deep forest, while localized landmarks like Happy Corner and Tabor Notch provide specific points of reference for local historians.
