1956 Map of Mooers

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The Canadian border defines the northern limit of this mid-century survey, where the U S Customs station stands near Perry Mills and Mooers. The landscape is dominated by the Great Chazy River and its various branches, which powered early industry like Purdy Mill and shaped the development of settlements such as Mooers Forks and Woods Falls. Two major rail lines, the Rutland Railroad and the Delaware and Hudson Railroad, intersect here, marking a transition from the agricultural lowlands into the elevated terrain of Rand Hill and Flat Rock. Local social life is evidenced by a network of country schools including School No 1 and Witherill Sch, along with community anchors like St Louis de France Ch in Sciota. The southern portion of the map climbs toward Negro Hill, showcasing a shift from rail-oriented valley towns to more isolated uplands.
