About this map

The West River and Connecticut River carve through the landscape of Windham County, Vermont, and the western edge of New Hampshire in this 1980s topographical study. Small villages like Newfane, Williamsville, and West Dummerston are linked by winding roads that trace the valleys between Putney Mountain and Black Mountain. The map captures the region's agricultural and rural character, evidenced by expansive tracts like Canoe Meadow and Kathan Meadows Road.

Genealogists will find a wealth of burial sites including Newfane Hill Cem, Old North Burying Ground, and Maple Grove Cem. Industrial and transport history is preserved in the path of the Boston and Maine railroad line and localized landmarks like the Moores Landing Strip. The presence of Dutton Pines State Park and Sunset Lake underscores the recreational and natural conservation aspects of the area during the late twentieth century.
