About this map

Millerton serves as a central hub in this survey of the border region where New York and Connecticut meet. The landscape is defined by a series of small, scattered settlements such as Irondale, Spencer Corners, and Northeast Center, which are linked by a network of rural roads traversing the valleys between Winchell Mountain and Silver Mountain. To the south, the influence of former rail corridors is evident in the naming of Sharon Station and Coleman Station, markers of a time when these points were vital for moving agricultural goods from the surrounding valley farms.

Genealogists will find significant value in the preservation of several local burial sites, including the Smithfield Burying Ground near Smithfield and the Irondale Cem. Water features such as the Webatuck Cr and Shekomeko Cr wind through the terrain, supporting local landmarks like Silamar Farm and Driftways Farm. The map provides a clear picture of how historical land divisions and small-scale hamlets have persisted into the twenty-first century.
