2010 Map of Middleville

About this map

Middleville sits at the junction of West Canada Creek and Maltanner Creek, serving as a focal point for the southern valley landscape of Herkimer County. This 2010 survey illustrates the rural transition from these narrow river valleys to the elevated plateaus where settlements like Norway and Fairfield were established. A network of early thoroughfares such as Military Rd and Hurricane Rd connects these scattered hamlets, tracing a pattern of land use that has persisted for generations. Genealogists and local historians can locate several historic burial sites, including the Hardscrabble Cemetery and Sweet Cemetery, alongside distinctive geographical landmarks like Barto Hill and Dairy Hill. The presence of smaller locales like Old City and Welch Corners highlights the enduring character of these rural New York crossroads.
