About this map

Lake Champlain dominates the western half of this Vermont survey, where a scattered archipelago of islands including Butler Island, Knight Island, and Burton Island sits just off the coast. The shoreline is highly articulated, defined by prominent landforms such as Saint Albans Point, Hathaway Point, and Lime Rock Point. These points frame the sheltered waters of the larger Saint Albans Bay settlement, which serves as a primary hub for this stretch of the lake.

Genealogists can find several family-named burial sites concentrated in the southern portion of the quadrangle, notably Torrey Cem, Waller Cem, and Evarts Cem. The inland landscape is drained by small waterways like Jewett Brook and Stevens Brook, which flow through a network of local roads such as Maquam Shore Rd and Georgia Shore Rd. The proximity of Melville Landing to the surrounding hills and river mouths like Mill River illustrates the continued importance of lake access for local transport and recreation.
