1966 Map of West Chazy

About this map

West Chazy sits at the eastern edge of this landscape, where the Delaware and Hudson Railroad runs parallel to the Little Chary River. The map reveals a transition from the agricultural lowlands of the Chazy and Beekmantown townships into the wooded slopes of Clinton State Forest. Notable for local history and genealogy, the sheet captures small clusters of settlement such as West Beekmantown, Beartown, and Robinson, each connected by a network of local roads like Military Turnpike and Old Military Road. In the west, the terrain rises toward Rand Hill and Pine Ridge, characterized by prominent features like Cobblestone Hill and the depression known as The Basin. Numerous cemeteries, including West Chazy Rural Cem and Stone Cem, are clearly marked, alongside the unique Church Campground near the village, reflecting the area's community structure in the mid-1960s.
