Strafford and its outlying hamlets occupy a landscape of interconnected river valleys and ridgelines where the Big River and Little River wind through the hills. This 2021 survey reveals a settlement pattern anchored by historic family-named locations such as Leighton Corners and Lockes Corner. Genealogists will find a high density of small family burial grounds, including the McNeal Cem and Jones Cem, scattered among the rural roads. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the elevations of the Blue Hills Range, peaking at Parker Mtn and Evans Mtn, which overlook the significant shoreline of Bow Lake. This modern data shows how the early interior settlements of South Barnstead and Center Strafford have maintained their character amid the wooded terrain of Strafford County.
