1949 Map of Orwell
USGS Topo · Published 1957About this map
Lake Champlain defines the western edge of this 1940s landscape, where the Vermont-New York border follows the water's deep channel near Larrabees Point and Chipman Point. The interior is characterized by the agricultural and rail-oriented patterns of the mid-century, with the Rutland railroad line connecting crucial points like North Orwell and East Shoreham. This era shows a community still anchored by its local infrastructure, including numerous one-room schoolhouses like the Barnum Hill Sch and the Smith Sch.
