1945 Map of Edmeston

About this map

Edmeston and Burlington anchor this mid-1940s landscape, which is defined by the winding paths of Wharton Creek and Butternut Creek. The map shows a rural network of small hamlets and family-named corners such as Robinson Corners, Barrett Corners, and Taylor Corners, reflecting the agrarian community structure of mid-century Otsego County. These settlements are linked by State Routes 80 and 51, cutting through a terrain of high ridges like Rice Hill and Wooley Hill.
