1943 Map of Charlotteville

About this map

Charlotteville sits at the heart of this mid-century landscape where the Otsego Co Schoharie Co line divides a network of rural school districts and family landmarks. The northern corridor is defined by the Delaware and Hudson Railroad and Schenevus Creek, connecting Worcester and East Worcester. This region is characterized by a dense distribution of one-room schoolhouses, such as Oliver Sch and Hall Sch, which were often the focal point of these small farming communities. To the south, the terrain climbs toward Clapper Hollow and the Lutheranville State Forest. Genealogists will find significant value in the mapped cemeteries, including Stuckey Cem and Dugway Cem, which anchor the small crossroads of Barton Corners and South Worcester during a period of transition for New York’s rural interior.
