2018 Map of Cavendish

About this map

Cavendish Gorge and the winding course of the Black River anchor this landscape in Windsor County, Vermont. The terrain is defined by numerous named peaks, including Hawks Mtn and Little Ascutney Mtn, which frame a network of small settlements and rural hamlets like South Reading, Hammondsville, and Amsden. This area is particularly dense with sites of interest for genealogists, featuring many burial grounds such as the Old Revolutionary War Cem and Mount Union Cem near Cavendish Center. The map also highlights local engineering landmarks, notably Bests Covered Bridge and Upper Falls Covered Bridge, which span the river valleys. The intricate road system, from Tyson Rd to S Ruckerbrush Rd, reveals a settlement pattern dictated by the steep elevations of Keyes Mtn and Widow Hill.
