About this map

Hamilton Coll dominates the central hills of this Oneida County landscape, with its academic grounds situated near the Hamilton College Reservoirs and the wooded slopes of Coll Hill. The surrounding valley is defined by the course of Oriskany Creek, which links the established settlements of Clinton, Kirkland, and Clark Mills. This area shows a dense concentration of historical burial sites, including the Westmoreland Cem and Kirkland Prospect Hill Cem, reflecting generations of settlement in the Mohawk Valley region.

Industrial and agricultural history converge at Farmers Mills and Franklin Springs, while the varied terrain features landmarks like Christmas Knob and Prospect Hill. The drainage of Deans Cr and Turkey Cr shapes the lowland corridors, connecting small hamlets like Lairdsville and Hecla to the larger town centers. This survey details the transition from the collegiate heights down to the creek-side mills and farmsteads that have long supported the local economy.
