About this map

Otego Creek and its West Branch carve through this central Otsego County landscape, where small hamlets and family crossings define the rural layout. The village of Hartwick serves as a central hub, situated near the Hartwick Reservoir and several hilltop summits like Scotch Hill and Whalen Hill. The area is marked by numerous legacy burial grounds, including the Butterfield and Robinson cemeteries, providing significant data for genealogical research into the families who settled these valleys.

Transportation patterns are dominated by a network of county roads and local lanes such as Jones Rd and State Land Rd, which connect outlying settlements like Snowdon, Cattown, and Wileytown. Distinctive terrain features like Cranberry Bog and the steep hollow of Hinman Hollow illustrate the varied geography of the northern Appalachian plateau, while named crossings like Summit Crossing and Field Crossing point to specific points of historical commerce and travel.
