1943 Map of West Eaton

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

West Eaton and the surrounding township of Eaton define this mid-century landscape of Madison County, shaped by upland reservoirs and narrow valley settlements. The terrain is marked by distinctive heights like Jackass Hill and Texas Hill, while the local economy is traced through the path of the Otselic River and the small hamlet of Georgetown Sta. Genealogists will find notable value in the location of the Hawk Cem and Niles Cem, alongside rural landmarks like School No 1. The map documents a system of water management including the Eaton Reservoir, Bradley Brook Reservoir, and Hatch Lake, which sit atop the hills to provide a controlled descent of water to the valleys below. These features, combined with the scattered farmsteads and crossing brooks like Lebanon Brook, illustrate the rural structure of Central New York during the early 1940s.
