About this map

Beaver Creek and the Unadilla River anchor this landscape at the intersection of Madison, Oneida, and Otsego counties. The settlement of Brookfield serves as a central hub, situated along the historic Skaneateles Tpke and surrounded by a network of upland ridges including Beaver Hill and Mount Hunger. For genealogists, the map is remarkably dense with burial sites, preserving the locations of numerous family-named grounds such as the Crumb Cem, Hoxie Cem, and Lamb Cem.

A network of recreational and historic paths, including Horse Trail 39 Trl and Horse Trail 41 Trl, wind through the high ground of Witter Hill and Gorton Hill. These trails, alongside old thoroughfares like Academy Rd and Fairground Rd, trace the long-standing agricultural and rural community patterns of the Unadilla Valley. Notable landmarks like Button Falls and the secluded Gorton Lake further define the varied geography of this central New York corridor.
