About this map

The Unadilla River forms a significant geographical boundary through this portion of Otsego and Chenango Counties, its valley floor housing established hamlets and industrial sites like Rockwells Mills and Mount Upton. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the river and the steep rise of Shumway Hill, with secondary drainage from Kent Brook and Guilford Creek carving the upland terrain.

Genealogists and local historians will find a high density of rural burial grounds and historical nodes, from Evergreen Cemetery near White Store to the Ives Settlement Cemetery in the south. These small settlements, often located at crossroads like Webb Corners and Godfrey Corners, illustrate the traditional agricultural and early mill-based economy of the region. Natural landmarks, including Guilford Lake and the White Store Falls, provide clear orientation points within this network of rural county roads.
