1916 Map of St. Albans

About this map

The eastern shores of Lake Champlain define this landscape, where the Missisquoi River meanders toward the border of the United States Canada boundary line. In the era between the world wars, St Albans stands as a central rail hub, marked by the extensive tracks of the Central Vermont and the Vermont Central railroads. The map reveals an intricate network of rural education with numbered district schools like School No 10 and School No 7 alongside named institutions such as the French School and Webster School. Industrial footprints are visible at the Fonda Quarry and near the falls of the Missisquoi, while the shoreline is dotted with summer destinations like Highgate Springs and the Lake View House. The complex geography of Missisquoi Bay and the islands, including Butler Island and Hog Island, illustrates the maritime character of Franklin County before modern lakeside development.
