About this map

The Otselic River valley serves as the central artery for this portion of Chenango County, anchoring a series of historic hamlets that have long defined the local geography. Settlements like Otselic, Otselic Center, and Bonney are situated along the valley floor and lower slopes, while more remote communities such as Beaver Meadow and Stanbro occupy the higher terrain to the south and east. The landscape is characterized by prominent elevations including Texas Hill and Truman Hill, which rise above the tributary network of Muller Brook and Middletown Brook.

For those tracing family history, several dedicated burial grounds such as Maple Grove Cem, Bonney Cem, and Cole Hill Cem are clearly marked. The presence of the Finger Lakes Trl and various snowmobile trails indicates the region's modern transition toward recreational land use. Significant water features like Perkins Pond and the headwaters of the East Branch Canasawacta Creek further define the drainage patterns of this rural New York plateau.
