About this map

The Black River corridor defines the eastern edge of this landscape, where the settlements of Glenfield and Glendale sit along the riverbanks. Moving west, the terrain rises sharply into the distinctive plateau of Tug Hill, a transition marked by the dramatic incision of Whetstone Gulf. This area is characterized by scattered rural communities and agricultural lands linked by a network of local routes like Fykes Rd and Houseville Gulf Rd.

Genealogists will find several notable burial sites including Old Martinsburg Cem, Carpenter Cem, and Burdicks Crossing Cem, many of which are located near the established village centers of Martinsburg and Turin. The map also captures several prominent elevations such as Gomer Hill and Welch Hill, which stand above the valley floor. The hydrography is equally dense, with numerous tributaries including Roaring Brook and Douglass Cr draining the highlands toward the main river valley.
