1947 Map of Port Henry

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

Lake Champlain dominates the center of this post-war landscape, serving as the border between New York's Essex County and Vermont's Addison County. On the New York shore, the industrial and transport history of Port Henry and Westport is evident, connected by the Delaware and Hudson RR and proximity to mining sites like Ore Bed Pt. The southern narrows are guarded by military history at Fort St Frederic Ruins and Fort Amherst Ruins, located near the Lake Champlain Orchard Pt Toll Bridge. To the east in Vermont, the terrain transitions into a dense network of rural infrastructure supporting communities like Vergennes and Addison. This side of the lake is particularly rich in local genealogy markers, featuring numerous schools such as Vanderhoof Sch and Nortontown Sch, alongside many family and community burial grounds including Gage Cem and Webster Cem.
