2012 Map of Stratford

About this map

The Connecticut River carves a winding path through this northern New England landscape, serving as the border between Stratford, New Hampshire, and Maidstone, Vermont. Small riverfront settlements such as Beatties, Masons, and Mapleton are linked by a network of rural roads that follow the valley floor, including Maidstone Lake Rd and Cheever Rd. The eastern terrain is dominated by the foothills of the White Mountains, with prominent peaks like Spruce Mountain and Goback Mountain overlooking the valley. Genealogists can identify significant local burial sites such as the Smith-Gardner Shoff Cem and Taylor Cem. The area's hydrology is characterized by numerous small ponds and tributaries, including Stratford Bog Pond and Hoskins Pond, which drain the surrounding highlands like Teapot Mountain and Bear Mountain.
