1905 Map of Orwell

About this map

The upper Salmon River basin in the early twentieth century is defined by a network of small upland hamlets and rural industrial sites. The river itself serves as a central anchor, marked by Salmon Falls and the crossing at Bennett Bridge. Settlements like Redfield and Orwell act as local hubs for a landscape crisscrossed by numerous waterways, including Pennock Brook and Beaverdam Brook. The mapping of small, family-associated locales such as Littlejohn Settlement and Otto Mills provides a detailed view of the era's social geography before the consolidation of many Adirondack-fringe communities.
