About this map

Sackets Harbor anchors this eastern shore of Lake Ontario, where the waters of Black River Bay meet the historic village. The landscape is defined by the outlet of the Black River and the winding course of Mill Creek and Muskellunge Creek. This coastal area is dense with historical markers, including the Military Cemetery near Navy Point and the inland Muskallonge Cemetery. Moving away from the harbor, the map reveals a network of small crossroads communities and rural hamlets such as Jewettville, Camps Mills, and Sulphur Springs.

Genealogists and local researchers can trace family landmarks through locations like Stowell Corners, Maxon Corners, and Sanford Corners. The presence of the Watertown International Airport in the northeast quadrant contrasts with the traditional agricultural and maritime character of the region. The map also detail shoreline features like Pillar Point and Storrs Point, providing a comprehensive view of the Jefferson County coastline and its immediate interior.
