2019 Map of Brisben

About this map

The Chenango River valley defines the northwestern reaches of this rural Chenango County landscape, where the small settlement of Brisben sits along the historical corridor of Railroad St. To the southeast, the village of Coventry serves as another focal point for the surrounding highlands. The area is marked by numerous family-named hills and hollows, such as Harbor Hill, Buck Hill, and Cohoon Hill, interspersed with small water bodies like Van Valkenburgh Pond. Genealogists will find a wealth of burial sites throughout the township, ranging from the Brisben Baptist Church-Cem to more remote locations like Upper Page Brook Cem and Chapel Cem. The drainage patterns of Page Brook and Wylie Brook illustrate the complex topography of the region, which is tied together by a network of local roads such as Coultermarsh Rd and Hattie Clark Rd.
