1968 Map of Lottsville

About this map

Little Brokenstraw Creek carves a central valley through this northern Warren County landscape, guiding the path of the Erie-Lackawanna railroad as it winds toward the New York state line. The late 1960s terrain is marked by small rural clusters like Lottsville and Wrightsville, while the village of Bear Lake sits near the northwestern corner, anchored by its namesake water body. This survey captures a transitional period for the local economy, where traditional land use meets modern infrastructure, evidenced by numerous gravel pits and gas wells alongside established sites like Berea Ch and the Turnpike Cem. To the south, the expansive State Game Lands No 143 preserves the wooded uplands, characterized by significant geological formations such as Brooks Rocks and Pikes Rocks that rise above the valley floor.
