2010 Map of Bristol Center

About this map

Bristol Valley forms the central corridor of this Ontario County landscape, where the meandering course of Mud Creek defines the local topography and settlement patterns. Numerous small hamlets and historical corners are scattered throughout the region, including Bristol Center, South Bloomfield, and Baptist Hill. This map is particularly valuable for genealogical research, as it documents a high concentration of small burial grounds such as Wheeler Cemetery, Codding Cemetery, and Doyle Cemetery, many of which are associated with early families of the area. The western edge is defined by the sharp descents of Abbey Gulf and Jason Gully, while southern elevations rise toward Stid Hill and Johnson Hill. This 2010 edition serves as a precise record of the rural road network and the enduring agricultural character of the Finger Lakes region prior to more recent development.
