About this map

The northern reaches of Lake Champlain and the Missisquoi River delta define this 1940s landscape, where the international boundary with Canada meets the Vermont shoreline. The bustling rail hub of St Albans dominates the southern interior, situated near the foot of Aldis Hill and Bellevue Hill. Farther north, the village of Swanton serves as a junction for the Central Vermont and the St Johnsbury and Lake Champlain Railroad, reflecting the region's importance as a transportation corridor between New England and Quebec. Along the coast, numerous islands such as Butler Island and Woods Island sit west of St Albans Bay, while the eastern terrain transitions into the upland settlements of Highgate Center and Highgate Falls. Genealogists and local historians can find a high density of numbered district schools, including School No 7 and the Rock River Sch, alongside industrial markers like the Fonda Quarry and seasonal landmarks like the Lake View House.
