About this map

Tonawanda Cr carves a central path through this Wyoming County landscape, connecting the primary village of Attica in the north to the hamlet of Varysburg in the south. The area is defined by its agrarian and institutional history, notably featuring the Prison Cem near the Attica Reservoir and several smaller rural settlements like East Bennington and Sierks. Genealogists will find a high density of burial grounds throughout the countryside, including the E Bennington German Cem, Saint Joseph's Cem, and Wilcox Cem.

Physical landmarks such as Poland Hill and Orr Hill rise above the Konawaugus Valley, while the southern reaches of the map are marked by the scenic Stony Brook Glen and the cascade at Johnson Falls. These features, alongside named locations like Friendly Acres Farm and Dutch Flats, illustrate a deeply rooted local geography where family-named landforms and small crossroads communities have persisted through the early 21st century.
