2010 Map of Pitcher

About this map

The Otselic River winds through this rural Chenango County landscape, connecting the small settlements of Pitcher and North Pitcher. This topographic survey reveals a series of family-named landmarks and upland terrain, including Oak Hill and Pink Hill in the northwest, which transition into the agricultural plateaus of Pharsalia. Local history is deeply etched into the land here through its numerous burial grounds, such as Pink Cemetery and the Brakel Valley Churchyard Cemetery, alongside roads named for established local families like George Beardsley Rd and Ralph Brown Rd. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the headwaters of Five Streams and Strongs Brook drain toward McDonough, while Genegantslet Lake provides a notable water feature at the edge of the Genegantslet Creek valley.
