1948 Map of Theresa

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

The Indian River winds through this Jefferson County landscape, anchoring the village of Theresa and dictating the placement of early infrastructure like the Kelsey Bridge and Joachim Bridge. In the years following World War II, this area maintained a network of rural schoolhouses, including Bacon School, School No 12, and School No 7, alongside small family-named crossroads such as Still Corners and Whitneys Corners. The New York Central railroad cuts across the terrain, marking stops at Strough Crossing and Douglas Crossing. The map highlights a rugged topography defined by Spruce Ledge and Corbin Ledge, while genealogical landmarks like Chaufty Cem and Van Allen Cem provide vital clues for tracing local family histories within the townships. This military-to-civilian revision illustrates a transitional era for Northern New York transportation and rural community life.
