About this map

Fairfield and the nearby settlement of Saint Rocks anchor this 2015 study of the Vermont landscape east of Swanton. The map reveals a dense network of family and historic cemeteries, including Saint Patricks Cem, Barlow Cem, and the Pumpkin Village Cem, which are invaluable for genealogical research in Franklin County. The topography is defined by the western edges of the Green Mountains, with local peaks like Fox Hill and Pine Hill rising above the watercourses of Black Creek and the Fairfield River.

Transport and land use are etched into the terrain through a web of local roads such as Chester Arthur Rd and Pumpkin Village Rd, while significant water bodies like Fairfield Pond and Dead Creek dominate the low-lying drainage patterns. This modern topographic record preserves the locations of numerous small burial grounds like Leach Cem and Morey Cem, reflecting the deep-rooted settlement patterns that have persisted in this rural corridor.
