About this map

Hillsboro and the western edge of Camden anchor this rural Oneida County landscape, where the headwaters of the West Branch Fish Creek and Mad River converge. The topography is defined by the winding course of the Little River and its various branches, creating a network of wetlands and small ponds like Gorton Pond and Bullhead Pond. This area is characterized by small, dispersed rural settlements and a dense grid of country roads that reflect long-established farming and residential patterns.

Genealogists will find significant value in the location of several historical burial grounds, including Temple Cemetery and Lynch Cemetery. These sites, along with small hamlets such as Elpis, Thompsons Corner, and Brockway Corners, provide essential geographical context for tracing families in the southern Tug Hill region. The map also captures the local reliance on the creek system, with features like Trout Brook and Fields Brook draining the land around Preston Hill.
