About this map

The Batten Kill river valley anchors this mid-century portrait of Washington County, where the Greenwich and Johnsonville railroad corridor links the industrial and agricultural centers of Greenwich and Cambridge. This era of the landscape is defined by its rural infrastructure, featuring a network of local schools like the Cary Sch, School No 1, and School No 2 that served the scattered hamlets of Center Falls, Battenville, and Coila. The terrain is marked by prominent elevations such as Mt Colfax and The Cobble, which overlook a series of small water bodies including Hedges Lake, Lake Lauderdale, and Dead Lake to the east. The map also documents significant community landmarks of the period, notably the Mary McClellan Hospital and Woodland Cem on the outskirts of Cambridge, providing a clear record of the area's development before post-war modernization significantly altered these traditional New York townships.
