1954 Map of Burnt Hills

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Saratoga Co Schenectady Co boundary line bisects this mid-century landscape, capturing a moment of suburban transition in the capital region. The village of Burnt Hills and its High Sch serve as a focal point for a network of older agricultural settlements like Charlton and Birchton. Development in the mid-1950s is concentrated in the south, where residential tracts like Wheeler Estates, Tucker Heights, and Komar Park begin to fill the spaces between established hamlets. The rural character remains evident through numerous small schools, including Industrial Farm Sch and Pashley Sch, and family-named landmarks such as Holbrook Corners. The winding courses of Alplaus Kill and Morning Kill dictate the local topography, while historic cemeteries like Pine Grove Cem and Sweetman Cem offer valuable points of reference for genealogists studying the area's early family foundations.
