About this map

Alfred and the surrounding Allegany County hills anchor this southern New York landscape, defined by the concentrated academic and residential developments of the SUNY Coll Of Technology At Alfred. The village layout reveals a tight-knit community where the Davis Memorial Carillon stands as a local landmark. Following the watercourses of Canacadea Cr and the Canisteo River, the map traces the historical transition from larger academic hubs to smaller rural hamlets such as Tinkertown, Alfred Station, and Hiltonville.

Upland terrain like Jersey Hill and Hamilton Hill overlooks a network of rural roads and family-named landmarks. Several historic burial grounds, including Alfred Rural Cem and Stillman Cem, offer vital reference points for genealogists. The topography is shaped by the winding paths of McHenry Valley Cr and Karr Valley Cr, illustrating how the valley floors historically dictated settlement patterns and transport routes through the Finger Lakes region.
