1909 Map of Winnepesaukee

USGS Topo · Published 1926

About this map

The broad waters of Lake Winnepesaukee dominate this landscape, showing a complex network of island life and shoreline settlements during the early twentieth century. From the industrial hubs of Laconia and Lakeport in the south to the quiet docks of Melvin Village and Center Harbor in the north, the map reveals a region defined by its geography. A notable Steamboat Route weaves through The Broads, connecting The Weirs to various islands and distant landings, emphasizing the importance of water travel before the era of modern road networks. The Boston and Maine RR hugs the western shore, serving towns like Meredith and Sanders. Dramatic elevation changes rise from the lake to the Ossipee Mountains and Belknap Mountains, while smaller family-named landmarks like Gilman Hill and Hollingsworth Hill provide detail for those tracing regional genealogy or land history.
