About this map

Mt Independence stands as a prominent high point in this rural landscape where the boundaries of Montgomery, Otsego, and Schoharie counties converge. This 2019 survey captures a series of upland settlements including Salt Springville, Sprout Brook, and Sharon Springs, connected by a network of historic county roads and trails like Indian Trail Rd. The drainage patterns of Canajoharie Creek and its namesake Sprout Brook dictate the valley-floor orientation of small hamlets like Van Deusenville and Buel.

Genealogists will find a cluster of family-named burial sites across the terrain, notably the Flint Cem, Coleman Cem, and McFee Cem. To the south, the village of Engleville sits near the headwaters of Engleville Pond, while the eastern edge includes the outskirts of Leesville. The map illustrates a contemporary rural New York character, where agricultural land and woodlots surround established crossroads that have served these hill towns for generations.
