1903 Map of Lassellsville

USGS Topo · Published 1913

About this map

Irish Settlement and Glasgow Mills sit amidst a complex network of creeks and small settlements in the southern foothills of the Adirondacks at the turn of the century. The terrain is defined by the heavy descent of Sprite Creek and Caroga Creek toward the Mohawk Valley, powering several mill sites such as Newkirk Mills. To the north, the landscape shifts to a dense concentration of glacial lakes, including Canada Lake, Nine Corner Lake, and the Spectacle Lakes. The southern margin reveals the industrial corridor of the N. Y. C. and H. R. R. R. passing through St. Johnsville. This survey highlights the era of small, localized manufacturing and family-named crossroads like Phipps Cors., Fical Corners, and Shaw Corners, providing a detailed look at the rural social geography of Fulton County before the widespread consolidation of these smaller hamlets.
