2023 Map of Big Flats

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Big Flats serves as the focal point for this survey of the Southern Tier, where the valley floor transitions into the high ridges of Martin Hill and Townley Hill. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Sing Sing Creek and the historical footprint of the Chemung-Feeder Canal, reflecting a legacy of water-based transportation and drainage that shaped early Chemung County settlement. The eastern portion is notably occupied by the Elmira/Corning Regional Airport, a major regional infrastructure hub situated near the village of Fisherville. Genealogy researchers will find significant value in the numerous burial grounds documented, including Pioneer Cem, Rural Home Cem, and the remote Oldfield Cem. The terrain is characterized by deep hollows like Breed Hollow and Reasor Hollow, which demonstrate the classic glacial and fluvial carving typical of the Chemung River watershed.
