About this map

The St Regis Indian Reservation dominates the northern landscape of this survey, bordered by the international boundary with Canada and the waters of the St Lawrence River. This region of Northern New York shows a dense network of early 20th-century industry and transit, centered on the St Regis River and Raquette River. Significant industrial landmarks like the Brasher Iron Works and the Wagstaff Factory indicate the era's manufacturing focus, while the crossing of the Grand Trunk and Rutland RR lines highlights a robust rail economy. The map is particularly rich for genealogical research, identifying numerous numbered district schools and named family crossroads such as Laverys Corner, Taylors Corner, and McEwens Corner. Small settlements like Hogansburg, Brushton, and North Lawrence serve as local hubs for the surrounding farmsteads and riverside mills.
