About this map

The village of Northville serves as the focal point for this survey, situated where the Sacandaga River meets the northern reaches of Great Sacandaga Lake. The landscape transition from the mountains of Adirondack State Park into the river valley is clearly visible, with the terrain marked by high points like Prospect Hill. Near the water, small communities such as Sacandaga Park and Fish House indicate a seasonal and residential economy oriented around the shoreline, including features like the Golf Course and Northampton Beach Campsite.

Family history is preserved through numerous rural burial grounds, including Gifford Valley Cem, King Cem, and Christie Cem. Away from the main village, the network of local roads such as Tenantville Road and Bunker Hill Road connects smaller crossroads like Carpenters Corners and Fairchilds Corners. The presence of several Gravel Pits and the Water Tank in Northville reflect the local infrastructure and industry during this era.
