In an effort to find out how the lake looked way back when, I found these survey and rail road maps. They give you and idea of how similar Winnipesaukee is then and now.

1756 Map of His Magesty's Provence of NH

1771 Winipifsioket Pond

1794 Survey Map of Winnipesaukee

1845 Winnipesaukee RR Map (Crooked because the map was drawn with north in the wrong place.)

1894 RR Map of Winnipesaukee Area
These maps can be found on the PhotoPost for closer detail. I hope everyone enjoys these as much as I.
