About this map

West Chazy serves as a focal point for this section of Clinton County, situated where the Little Chazy River flows toward the eastern lowlands. The settlement pattern is defined by a dense network of local roads such as Lovers Ln and Old Cider Mill Rd, reflecting a landscape of established rural communities including West Beekmantown, Beartown, and Robinson. This region is particularly rich in genealogical sites, with several burial grounds including Saint Josephs Cem, W Chazy Rural Cem, and the Stone Cem scattered across the township.

The topography transitions from the elevations of Rand Hill and Cobblestone Hill to the wetlands of The Basin and the curiously named Dead Sea in the northwest. Waterways like Tracy Brook, Corbeau Cr, and Farrell Brook weave through the terrain, supporting the small-scale aviation at Vasile Field Airport. The map documents a contemporary rural New York landscape where historic family-named landmarks and cemeteries remain central to the community's geographic identity.
