2013 Map of Bristol Center

About this map

Mud Cr and its tributaries carve a series of deep ravines across this Ontario County landscape, most notably at Reed Gully, Randall Gully, and Center Gully. This 2013 survey of the Finger Lakes region reveals a rural network of small hamlets and agricultural crossroads, such as South Bloomfield and Bristol Center. For genealogists, the map provides precise locations for several family-named burial grounds, including Andrews Cem, Codding Cem, and the Wheeler Cem. The terrain transitions from the broader flats of Egypt Valley in the west to the higher elevations surrounding Berby Hollow in the south. The area’s recreational character is noted at the Bristol Woodlands Campground, while its historical religious centers are anchored by Bristol Hill and the adjacent Baptist Hill Cem.
