1905 Map of Waddington

USGS Topo · Published 1918

About this map

Waddington serves as the focal point of this riverfront landscape, situated along the southern banks of the ST Lawrence River. The era is defined by heavy maritime and rail activity, with the Morrisburg Canal and Farrans Point Canal facilitating navigation around the river's treacherous rapids. Across the water, the Grand Trunk railroad runs through Morrisburg in the Dominion of Canada, while the American interior is characterized by agricultural hamlets such as Chase Mills and Chamberlain. The map captures the complex geography of the river before modern seaway developments, showing large islands like Ogden Island and Plat Rapide Island as they appeared in the early 20th century. Inland, the courses of the Grass River and Raquette River flow toward the border, sustaining small settlements like Madrid and Chipman in a network of creeks and brooks.
