1943 Map of Holmesville

About this map

The Unadilla River forms the eastern boundary of this landscape, separating the townships of Norwich and New Berlin from Morris and Butternuts. This survey, compiled from 1942 aerial photography with later purple revisions, depicts a region defined by upland state forests and small valley settlements. The Unadilla Valley Railroad follows the river corridor, serving agricultural communities like South New Berlin and Holmesville. The interior is dotted with family-named landmarks and cemeteries, such as Wightman Cem and the S Dyer Cem, alongside small rural schools like School No 6 and School No 7. High-elevation water bodies, including Chenango Lake near Flagpole Hill and Madison Pond, feed the drainage networks of Whaupaunaucau Creek and Great Brook. This map provides a detailed view of the Chenango County interior during the mid-20th century, showing the persistence of crossroads hamlets like Kings Settlement and Amblerville.
