About this map

The Chenango River valley serves as the primary corridor for commerce and settlement in this Chenango County landscape, anchored by the city of Norwich. The municipal center is clearly defined by the Chenango County Court House, while the surrounding terrain is a network of ridges and narrow valleys like German Hollow and Tinker Ridge. Numerous small cemeteries are scattered throughout the hills, including the Packer - Mason Cem near Preston and the Slater Cem further east, offering precise locations for genealogical research into the area's early family plots.

Transportation patterns are dominated by the valley floor, where the Lt Warren Eaton Airport sits near the junction of Canasawacta Creek and the river. Smaller settlements like South Plymouth, North Norwich, and Plasterville mark historical crossroads that have persisted into the modern era. The drainage of East Branch Canasawacta Creek and Whapanaka Brook illustrates the traditional water-driven geography that once powered local industry.
