About this map

The Unadilla River and Wharton Creek define the western boundaries of this modern survey, where the village of New Berlin sits near the junction of Chenango Co and Otsego Co. The landscape is characterized by high ridges like West Hill and Shacktown Mountain, with settlements such as Hoboken and Silver Lake established along the valley floors. For genealogists, the map provides precise locations for several notable resting places, including the Morris Family Burial Ground near Morris Pond and the older Saint Andrew's Cem.

Tracing the eastern portion of the sheet reveals the community of Morris and the surrounding drainage of Butternut Creek. Numerous small water bodies like Pickens Ponds, Allen Pond, and the Morris Reservoir are scattered through the uplands, linked by a network of rural routes such as Co Hwy 18 and Angel Hill Rd. This layout preserves the traditional settlement patterns of central New York, where farms and family-named roads follow the winding contours of the hills.
