1948 Map of Underhill

About this map

Browns River carves a significant path through this Vermont landscape, anchoring a valley where the settlements of Riverside, Underhill, and Jericho converged during the late 1940s. The region is defined by a dense network of rural schoolhouses and distinct ethnic or localized hamlets, such as the English Settlement Sch and Irish Settlement Sch. These labels suggest a mid-century community still tied closely to its 19th-century settlement patterns, where neighborhood identity was often centered around a single school or a specific upland clearing like Flynn Hill or Metcalf Hill.
