1997 Map of Bristol

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

The Hogback Mountains dominate the central spine of this landscape, creating a sharp natural divide between the lowlands of Monkton and the valley of Starksboro. This 1990s revision reveals a complex network of small rural hamlets and family-named cemeteries that speak to generations of settlement along the waterways. To the south, the village of Bristol serves as a local hub, anchored by Howden Hall and the Mountain Street School. The terrain is defined by the steep slopes of East Mountain and High Knob, while the drainage patterns of Lewis Creek and Pond Brook dictate the placement of early infrastructure like the Plank Road. This survey is particularly rich for genealogists, capturing numerous burial grounds such as Greenwood Cemetery and Friends Church Cemetery, often situated near vanished crossroads or early farmsteads.
