About this map

The Connecticut River serves as the defining border between New Hampshire and Vermont in this detailed survey, winding through a valley of small agricultural settlements and rural hillsides. The crossing at Columbia Bridge and the nearby village of Cones represent critical points of connection and habitation along the river corridor. The landscape is deeply tied to the drainage systems of the White Mountains and Northeast Kingdom, with numerous tributaries such as Simms Stream, Mill Brook, and Schoolhouse Brook carving through the upland terrain.

For those researching family history in Coos and Essex counties, the map identifies several small burial grounds, including Blodgett Cem, Healey Cem, Bloomfield Cem, and Lyman Cem. These sites, often situated near old farm roads like Towne Farm Rd and Simms Hill Rd, provide a window into the settlement patterns of this border region. The area is characterized by prominent peaks like Lightning Mtn and Mt Pleasant, showing the transition from river bottomlands to high-elevation forest and pasture.
