1951 Map of Remington Corners

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Middle Branch Oswegatchie River and its numerous tributaries define the landscape of Lewis County during this mid-century survey. The area is marked by a network of small, localized settlements typically established at crossroads, including Remington Corners, Tylers Corners, and Oswegatchie Corners. The topography is a complex patchwork of wetlands and low ridges, with Sunday Swamp, Carley Swamp, and Blue Swamp filling the lowlands between elevations like John Browns Mtn and Panther Mtn. The river's influence on local industry is evident at Kimball Mill and Bishas Mill, while the southern portion of the quadrangle shows the small community at Jerden Falls. An intriguing historical detail is the presence of the Erie Canal near the western boundary, cutting through the landscape alongside the natural flow of Oswegatchie Creek. This geography reflects a period where small-scale water power and rural connectivity were still central to the region's character.
