2021 Map of Bernardston

About this map

The town of Bernardston serves as a central hub in this modern topographic study of Franklin County, where the Fall River cuts a prominent valley between East Mtn and West Mtn. This landscape is defined by its transition from the northern reaches of Greenfield Town across the state border into Windham County, Vermont. For those researching local lineages, the map identifies numerous burial sites including East Hill Cem, Baker Cem, and the Old Cem near the town center. The presence of Hales Crossing and Cold Spring indicates long-standing rural neighborhoods, while the elevations of Wildcat Mtn and Bald Mtn overlook a complex network of brooks and ponds. Significant water features such as the Greenfield Reservoir and Newell Pond underscore the area's ongoing importance for local water management and recreation.
