About this map

Millers Mills and the headwaters of the Unadilla River anchor this mid-1940s survey of the borderlands between Herkimer and Otsego Counties. The landscape is defined by deep geological features like Passage Gulf and Polly Miller Gulf, which dictated the early settlement patterns of hamlets such as Columbia Center and Spinnerville. The northern portion of the map is dominated by the water infrastructure for the Mohawk Valley, showing Ilion Reservoir No 1 and Ilion Res No 2 tucked into the steep terrain of German Flatts. Genealogists will find a wealth of local landmarks, including the Conrad Helmer Cem and numerous district schoolhouses like the Bloodgood School. The southern edge is marked by the historic Cherry Valley Turnpike and the Delaware Lackawanna and Western railroad, illustrating the vital transportation corridors that linked these upland farming communities to the broader region.
