1902 Map of Wilmurt

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

West Canada Creek carves through this northern landscape, serving as a central artery for the hamlets and timberlands of the southern Adirondacks at the turn of the century. The small settlements of Wilmurt and Nobleboro sit at key junctions where the creek meets its tributaries, while Morehouseville stands as a lonely outpost further east. The map captures an era of evolving water management, showing the early footprints of the Hinckley Reservoir and Twin Lakes Reservoir alongside naturally occurring bodies like Honnedaga Lake and Spectacle Lake. High peaks such as Ft. Noble Mt. and Baldface Mt. anchor the rugged topography, illustrating the challenging terrain that dictated early road placements and township boundaries between Norway and Salisbury. This 1898 survey provides a precise record of the isolated farmsteads and creek-side communities before modern infrastructure altered the Adirondack interior.
