2021 Map of Island Pond

About this map

Island Pond serves as the primary hub for this corner of the Northeast Kingdom, where the waters of the Clyde River begin their westward journey. The settlement is anchored by a significant collection of burial grounds reflecting the town’s communal history, including the Old Protestant Cem, Old Catholic Cem, and New Catholic Cem. Further west, the village of East Charleston sits between Echo Lake and Seymour Lake, connected by a network of local roads such as Ten Mile Square Rd and Hinton Hill Rd. The landscape is defined by its dramatic relief, rising from the river lowlands to prominent summits like Bluff Mtn and Haystack Hill. Genealogists and local historians will find value in the dispersed markers of early settlement, such as Frenchmans Lot and various family-named sites like Buck Cem and Morrill Cem, which remain scattered across the highlands and timbered slopes of the Orleans and Essex county lines.
