1967 Map of Middletown Springs

About this map

Middletown Springs serves as the primary hub in this southwest Vermont landscape, situated where North Brook and South Brook converge to form the Poultney River. The terrain is defined by the massive ridge of Tinmouth Mountain and the high peaks of Clark Mountain, which divide the settlement at West Tinmouth from the eastern valley. Throughout the quadrangle, numerous small burial grounds such as Staples Cem, Crampton Cem, and Pleasant View Cem are scattered across the hillsides, providing essential data points for local genealogists. The presence of numerous Gravel Pits along the valley floors indicates the local extraction industry of the mid-20th century. To the southeast, the small community of Scottsville sits near the headwaters of Baker Brook, while the marshy stretch of the Tinmouth Channel leads toward the isolated waters of Chipman Lake.
