About this map

The Cohocton River valley serves as the primary corridor for settlement and transportation in this 1969 survey of Steuben County. The Erie-Lackawanna railroad runs parallel to the river, connecting the established communities of Campbell, Curtis, and Coopers Plains. This valley-centric development pattern contrasts sharply with the steep, wooded hills to the north and south, where place names like Thurston and Addison define the upland terrain.

Genealogists will find significant local-history markers, including Riverside Cem and Hope Cem, alongside educational institutions such as the Central Sch and the County Technical Sch. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the State Game Management Area and Beartown Forest, indicating a landscape preserved for public use. Other notable features include Erwin Pond and the Picnic Area & Tower on Smith Hill, offering a view of the intricate network of hollows like Knowles Hollow and Curtis Hollow.
