1966 Map of Lowville

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Black River and its winding oxbows dominate the Lewis County landscape, defining the boundaries between the town centers of Lowville and Watson. In the mid-1960s, this area served as a regional hub for government and education, evidenced by the Central Sch, County Voc Sch, and the County Fairgrounds. The village of Lowville shows a dense grid of streets near the Penn Central railroad line, while the surrounding countryside is characterized by agricultural roads and rural institutions like St Peters Ch. To the east, the terrain shifts into the State Forest Preserve, where the landscape becomes more wooded and less populated. Water management and local industry are visible through the presence of an Aqueduct, several Gravel Pits, and a Pumping Sta near the riverbank. Significant family and historical markers include Beaches Bridge Cem and Ebblie Cem, which offer critical data points for genealogical research in this Black River Valley community.
