1961 Map of Pope Mills

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Black Lake dominates the northwestern landscape of this St. Lawrence County region, its shoreline deeply indented by bays like Lower Deep Bay and Orchard Bay. The settlement of Pope Mills sits at the junction of Fish Creek and the lake, serving as a historic focal point for the surrounding township of Macomb. This mid-century view reveals a rural network of crossroads and small communities, including Ruby Corner, Pierces Corners, and Brasie Corners. Away from the water, the terrain rises toward Fine Hill, while the southeastern corner is defined by the Oswegatchie River and the boundary of Gouverneur. Genealogists will find several burial sites noted, such as Woodworth Cem and Oldsville Cem, alongside a web of local thoroughfares like Winding Hill Road and California Road that linked these remote homesteads and farms.
