About this map

Berlin and the surrounding high country of the Taconic Range define this landscape along the tri-state border. The Little Hoosic River valley serves as the primary corridor for settlement and transit, linking the communities of Center Berlin, Petersburg, and Cherryplain. The map reveals a distinct pattern of land use where narrow hollows, such as Satterlee Hollow, Greene Hollow, and Mattison Hollow, cut into the steep slopes of the mountains.

Genealogists can identify several burial grounds including Berlin Community Cem, Center Berlin Cem, and Pleasant Valley Cem near the river. Significant elevation changes are marked by landmarks like Berlin Mtn and Misery Mtn, while the Taconic Trl follows the rugged terrain near the state line. Of particular interest to local historians is the geologic and recreational feature known as The Snow Hole, situated near the border with the Green Mountain National Forest where New York, Massachusetts, and Vermont converge.
