Addition:

Jansy writes "it is Boston, not Virginia, which lies in the vicinity of Wordsmith."

This is not true.

We know (from Kinbote but he has no reason to lie here) that New Wye is "at latitude of Palermo", i.e. about 39°N.
Palermo is at 39°26′18″N.

Within Appalachia (i.e. Appalachian Mts.), the closest model is Martinsburg in West Virginia, at 39°27'N, which is much closer to Virginia than to Boston.
