1915 Map of Milford

About this map

The Delaware River carves a winding path through this tri-state border region, serving as the primary axis for development in the early 20th century. Along its northern banks, the Erie Railroad facilitates transport through river settlements like Pond Eddy and Lackawaxen, where the Lackawaxen River joins the main flow. The interior plateau is defined by its educational and rural infrastructure, most notably the Yale Forest School near Milford and a dense network of one-room schoolhouses such as Sawkill School, McCain School, and Dark Swamp School.
