About this map

The industrial and residential corridors of Gloversville and Johnstown anchor this region in the southern Adirondack foothills. The landscape is defined by the transition from the dense urban grids of these glove-making centers to the open waters and marshlands of the northeast. Notable burial grounds like Prospect Hill Cem and Israel Cem reflect the deep-rooted community history of the area.

Water management is central to the terrain, with the Ayres Hill Storage Reservoir, Rice Reservoir, and Port Reservoir serving the municipalities, while the western reach of Great Sacandaga Lake borders Mayfield. Small named settlements such as Riceville, Berkshire, and Hale Mills dot the outskirts, connected by a network of county roads that follow the drainage of Maylender Cr and Anthony Cr. The presence of several distinct cemeteries, including Colonial Cem and Saint Patricks Cem, provides significant detail for researchers tracing family lineages across these historic New York settlements.
