About this map

West Canada Creek and its many tributaries carve through this interior portion of Adirondack Park, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of water bodies and high points. The settlements of Nobleboro, Ohio, and Wilmurt Corners anchor the small pockets of habitation amidst the peaks of Fort Noble Mtn and McCauley Mtn. Local infrastructure in the mid-1950s remained concentrated in the south, where State Road and Hurricane Road connect rural districts.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of small community landmarks, including the Wilmurt Sch, Turner Sch, and Reising Sch. Several burial grounds, such as Morehouseville Cem and McIntosh Cem, are clearly marked alongside the War Memorial Monument. The presence of numerous clearings like California Clearing and Late Hall Clearing suggests a history of localized land use within the expansive forests of the Black River headwaters.
