2016 Map of Theresa

About this map

The Indian River winds prominently through this northern New York landscape, anchoring the village of Theresa and the hamlet of Rivergate. This survey highlights the region's complex water system, including the shores of Moon Lake and Hyde Lake, along with the network of creeks like Black Cr and Gillette Cr that drain the undulating terrain. For those tracing local history, several family-named landmarks and burial grounds are documented, such as Kelsey Bridge Cem near the river and the Chaufty Cem situated along the drainage of Black Cr. The map further details a variety of crossings including Coon Bridge and Joachim Bridge, alongside topographical features like Stony Point and Corbin Ledge that define the valley's edges. The road network connects historic settlements via routes like English Settlement RD and Dutch Settlement RD, reflecting the early community patterns of Jefferson County.
