2010 Map of New Boston

About this map

Deer River and several smaller tributaries carve through this section of Lewis County, defining the rural landscape of North Country New York. The 2010 geography reveals a pattern of crossroads settlements and family-named landmarks that have persisted for generations. Hamlets like New Boston and Bellwood serve as anchors for the surrounding agricultural tracts, while numerous corners such as Pinckney Corners, Gardners Corners, and Liberty Corners mark historic intersection points of local travel and trade. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of several burial grounds, including Battle Cemetery, Gallup Cemetery, and Liberty Cemetery, which are preserved alongside drainage features like Cobb Creek and Silver Brook. The map illustrates the enduring placement of small communities like Rector within a network of local roads and waterways, reflecting the quiet, rural character of the Denmark region.
