About this map

Lake Champlain dominates the western half of this survey, defining a landscape of rocky points and scattered islands in the waters of Lapans Bay and St Albans Bay. The shoreline transition from the deep lake to the marshy lowlands is evident near St Albans Bay State Park and the mouth of the Mill River. These waterways supported a seasonal economy and local transport network, evidenced by the State Boat Dock and the cluster of activity at Melville Landing.

On the mainland, the road network follows the undulating terrain, with names like Maguam Road and Kellogg Road connecting historic farmsteads and rural properties. Local family history is preserved at the St Albans Point Cem and Waller Cem, while industry is represented by a Quarry located along the hills overlooking the bay. The map also delineates the offshore reach of Butler Island and Woods Island, illustrating the island geography that shaped the community of St Albans Bay.
