2021 Map of Windham

About this map

Windham and its surrounding hamlets sit within a high-elevation landscape defined by the drainage basins of the Saxtons River and the S Br Williams River. This 2021 survey details the tight-knit settlement patterns of North Windham, South Windham, and Houghtonville, where development remains clustered along valley roads like Windham Hill Rd and Houghtonville Rd. The topography is marked by prominent peaks such as Glebe Mtn and Timber Ridge Mtn, which separate the various brook valleys. Genealogists will find a high density of burial grounds throughout these uplands, including the centrally located Windham Center Cem and more isolated sites like the Popple Dungeon Cem and Stiles Cem. The map effectively illustrates the enduring rural character of this part of Windham County, showing how historic family names are preserved in landmarks like Burt Hill and Blake Hill.
