2016 Map of Edmeston

About this map

Edmeston and the surrounding hamlets of Garrattsville and West Burlington define the mid-20th-century rural character of Otsego County. The landscape is deeply carved by the Wharton Cr and Butternut Cr valleys, which dictated the placement of small agricultural settlements and the winding network of roads like Hickling Rd and Gott Rd. Genealogists will find a wealth of burial sites, from the Old United Presbyterian Church Cem in Burlington to smaller family and congregational plots like Jennings Cem and Quaker Cem. The terrain is punctuated by significant rises such as Wooley Hill and Angel Hill, while small-scale aviation is represented by the Suntime Airport near Barrett Corners. This survey captures the enduring settlement patterns of upstate New York, where many centers like Chapinville and Cardtown remain concentrated around ancient watercourses and crossroads.
