1948 Map of Essex Center

About this map

Essex Center and the neighboring village of Jericho anchor the southern portion of this landscape, where the rural crossroads of Chittenden County meet the foothills of the Green Mountains. The area is defined by a series of north-south valleys carved by Browns River and Alder Brook, which historically dictated the placement of early settlements and travel routes. Significant family-named landmarks like Butlers Corners, Pages Corner, and Bowman Corners suggest a long-established agricultural community organized around local intersections and small schools, such as School No 2 and Brookside Sch.
