1916 Map of Lake Bonaparte

USGS Topo · Published 1939

About this map

Lake Bonaparte sits at the heart of this landscape where the St Lawrence and Lewis County line cuts through the North Country forest. Surveyed in the early 1910s, the map reveals a region defined by its timber and water resources, with early industry centered at Kimball Mill and Bishas Mill. The village of Harrisville serves as a primary hub, positioned where the Adirondack Boundary Line meets the New York Central and Carthage and Adelphi RR lines. Scattered settlements like Middle Branch Settlement and Alpina suggest a remote but established network of homesteads and small-scale operations. Evidence of early education is visible through several rural institutions, including the French Settlement School and Aldrich School, providing valuable location data for genealogists tracing ancestral families in these woods.
