1943 Map of Sherburne

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Sherburne and the surrounding township appear during the mid-war period when the Chenango River valley supported a dense network of rural schoolhouses and family cemeteries. The landscape is defined by its deep valleys and significant elevations, including Hunts Mountain and Sugarloaf Mountain, which separate the agricultural lowlands from the high ridges of Hamilton and Brookfield. Local history is anchored by established community sites such as Harrisville and the Negro Hollow Ch, alongside numerous numbered districts like School No 13 and School No 1. The map documents a traditional dairy and timber landscape just before post-war modernization, tracing waterways like Handsome Brook and West Brook as they feed the primary river system. This survey provides a precise account of property placement and civil infrastructure, including several family burial grounds like the Tillotson Cem and Palmer Cem.
