About this map

The Batten Kill river winds through a landscape of ridges and valleys in this early twentieth-century survey of Washington County, New York, and the Vermont border. The waterway anchors a string of paper and agricultural settlements, including Greenwich, Battenville, and Shushan. Transportation is dominated by the intersecting routes of the Delaware and Hudson RR and the Rutland and Washington RR, which facilitated trade between the valley towns like Salem and Cambridge. Further north, the terrain transitions into the upland basins of Cossayuna Lake and Summit Lake. Genealogists may find value in tracing smaller, localized place names such as Pumpkin Hook, Anaquassacook, and Fly Summit, many of which were small rural centers tied to the surrounding hill farms and mills. The boundary between New York and Vermont is clearly delineated along the eastern edge, passing through the Camden Valley and near Huckleberry Hill.
