About this map

The Hudson River corridor near Schuylerville and Greenwich is captured here during the mid-1930s, showcasing a landscape transitioning from its industrial and canal-era peak. The dominance of the river is clear, with the Champlain Canal (Abandoned) tracing the western bank, a reminder of the earlier transportation network that shaped these river towns. To the south, the Saratoga Battlefield and the Saratoga Battle Monument mark the significant revolutionary history of this ground.

Manufacturing remains central to the local economy, evidenced by the Cement Mill and settlements like Victory Mills and Clarks Mills situated along the water's edge. This survey, compiled in part from aerial photographs, also details the rural character of the eastern uplands near Bald Mountain and Willard Mountain, where family-named landmarks like Rafferty Sch and the North Easton Friends Meetinghouse served the local community. The presence of the Sarles Ferry (Abandoned) and Ensign Ferry (Abandoned) reflects the decline of earlier river crossings as modern infrastructure took hold.
