1943 Map of Willsboro

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

Lake Champlain dominates this 1943 survey, serving as the geographic anchor for the lakeside communities of Willsboro, Essex, and Charlotte. The topography is defined by the sharp rise of the Adirondack State Park mountains, including Trembleau Mtn and Rattlesnake Mtn, which frame the deep waters of Willsboro Bay. The map captures a vital transportation network where the Delaware and Hudson railroad traces the western shore and the Rutland line serves the Vermont side, connected by a ferry crossing at McNeil Bay. Local life is recorded through numerous small district institutions like Ryan Sch and Brookfield Sch, while the presence of the Craterclub and various named points like Ligonier Pt suggest the era's established waterfront culture and seasonal residency patterns along the New York-Vermont border.
