About this map

Millers Mills and the surrounding highlands of Herkimer County define a landscape shaped by narrow valleys and local watercourses. The headwaters of the Unadilla River and its tributary at Unadilla Lake serve as focal points for historical settlement patterns, including Millers Mills Crossing and the nearby Cedarville Station. Numerous small crossroads and family-named landmarks like Dennison Corners and Getman Corners dot the plateau, reflecting the area's deep agricultural roots.

The terrain is notably carved by glacial and fluvial action, visible in the dramatic Ilion Gorge and several distinct "gulfs" such as Beckus Gulf and Polly-Miller Gulf. Genealogists will find a significant number of family and community burial grounds, including Brown-Young Cemetery, Edick Cemetery, and Warren Cemetery, providing a dense record of the families who settled this portion of the northern Appalachian plateau.
