2012 Map of Sharon

About this map

The White River valley carves through this Windsor County landscape, anchoring the village of Sharon and its surrounding hill farms. This modern era survey reveals a high concentration of ancestral sites for genealogists, including the Joseph Smith Monument near the headwaters of Whitewater Brook. The terrain is defined by significant elevations such as Baxter Mountain and Quimby Mountain, while the river corridor is marked by the Howe Covered Bridge and several burial grounds like Village-Pine Hill Cem and Broad Brook Cem. Small upland water bodies including Standing Pond and C C C Pond dot the drainage basins of Fay Brook and Quation Brook. The network of backroads, including Sawyer Hill Rd and Carpenter Hill Rd, connects scattered settlements and family cemeteries such as Ordway Cem and Button Cem, reflecting the enduring rural character of this Vermont township.
