About this map

The Indian River winds through this Jefferson County landscape, serving as a focal point for the village of Theresa. This 2011 survey documents a region defined by its watercourses and rural junctions, where the river passes under Coon Bridge and Joachim Bridge before continuing north. The map details numerous crossroad settlements such as Stroughs Crossing, Still Corners, and Rivergate, which reflect the historic distribution of small agricultural hubs. Notable for genealogists are the several burial grounds scattered throughout the township, including Kelsey Bridge Cemetery, Chaufty Cemetery, and Van Allen Cemetery.

Elevated terrain features like Corbin Ledge and Spruce Ledge overlook the river valley, while the northern boundary is marked by Hyde Lake and Moon Lake. The infrastructure is a network of local roads with evocative names like Pink School House Rd and Dutch Settlement Rd, indicating the area's developmental heritage. From the Perch River in the west to Elm Ridge in the east, this map preserves the contemporary layout of a quintessential North Country landscape.
