1949 Map of St. Johnsbury

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

St Johnsbury serves as the regional anchor for this late-1940s landscape, where the confluence of the Passumpsic River and the Connecticut River dictated the location of early industry and transport. The map documents a transition in energy and transit, from the traditional water-powered sites like Morses Mills and Ewells Mills to the massive Frank D Comerford Hydro-electric Plant downstream. Rail lines including the Canadian Pacific and the St Johnsbury and Lake Champlain RR thread through narrow river valleys, connecting established villages like Barnet and Passumpsic with the broader New England market.
