2016 Map of Sherburne

About this map

Harrisville and Columbus anchor this rural landscape where the Chenango River valley meets the rising topography of the Southern Tier. A legacy of early industry and community life is visible in road names like Casey Cheese Factory Rd and Furman Mill Rd, tracing the agricultural and milling history of the region. The area's complex hydrology is defined by the descent of Mad Brook toward Rexford Falls, while higher elevations are marked by distinctive peaks such as Sugarloaf Mtn and Hunts Mtn. Genealogists will find a wealth of burial sites across the township, including Saint Malachy Cem, Howard Cem, and the Tillotson Cem, which are scattered among family-named landmarks like Skinner Hill and Columbus Hill. This survey captures the enduring rural character of the area, where small settlements persist amidst a network of brooks and ridge-top roads.
