1909 Map of Winnepesaukee

USGS Topo · Published 1911

About this map

Lake Winnepesaukee and its complex archipelago dominate this New Hampshire survey, revealing a landscape defined by early twentieth-century transport and settlement. The map documents a time when the Boston and Maine RR serviced the western shores at Laconia and Lakeport, while Steamboat Routes crisscrossed The Broads to reach landings like Melvin Village and Lees Mills. The intricate shoreline of Moultonboro Bay and Meredith Bay is dotted with numerous islands, including the large Governors Island and Sixmile I. In the north and south, the Ossipee Mountains and Belknap Mountains provide a dramatic vertical contrast to the sprawling waters. This era shows the transition of the region from a timber and mill economy, evidenced by Moultonboro Falls, into a burgeoning lakeside destination connected by rail and water.
