About this map

The Chenango River valley defines the western edge of this landscape, where the village of Sherburne serves as a primary hub of activity and commerce. To the east, the terrain rises toward significant high points such as Hunts Mountain and Columbus Hill, separated by a network of rural roads and small drainages like Handsome Brook and Great Brook. The map reveals a deeply rooted agrarian community, evidenced by landmarks like the Sherburne Grange and numerous family or community burial grounds including Palmer Cemetery and Howard Cemetery.

Smaller clusters of settlement at Harrisville and Columbus are connected by a grid of thoroughfares with descriptive names like Casey Cheese Factory Rd and Old Turnpike Rd, which hint at the historical industry and transit patterns of the region. The map also documents specific landmarks such as Rexford Falls and the secluded Negro Hollow, providing a clear look at the Madison County geography at the start of the twenty-first century.
