1916 Map of Lake Bonaparte

USGS Topo · Published 1925

About this map

Harrisville and the New York Central Adirondack Division define the industrial and transit corridor of this North Country landscape. The village sits at the crossing of the West Branch Oswegatchie River, while the rail line winds westward past Bonaparte and toward Natural Bridge. The map reveals a dense network of early rural education, with the French Settlement School, California School, and Aldrich School serving remote clusters of settlers and farmsteads. To the south, timber and water power interests are evidenced by Kimball Mill and Bishos Mills along the Middle Branch Oswegatchie River. The jagged Adirondack Boundary Line cuts through the eastern portion of the quadrangle, marking the transition into the protected wilderness near Fine. Local genealogy is well-served by named corners such as Remington Corners and Geers Corners, which often indicate the location of family landholdings during this era.
