1943 Map of St. Johnsbury

About this map

The Bayley-Hazen Military Road cuts a diagonal path through this landscape, tracing an eighteenth-century route across the northern Vermont hills. In the early 1940s, the region was characterized by small upland agricultural centers and river-driven industry. St Johnsbury serves as the primary hub, where the St Johnsbury and Lake Champlain RR, Canadian Pacific Ry, and Maine Central RR converge along the riverbanks. The Connecticut River at the southern edge of the survey displays significant infrastructure, notably the Frank D Comerford Hydro-Electric Plant near Inwood Sta. Numerous family-named hills and local landmarks, such as Goslants Mill and Pumpkin Hill, reflect a well-established pattern of rural settlement. The western portion of the map is dominated by the wilder terrain of the Groton State Forest, punctuated by numerous ponds and the expansive Peacham Bog.
