1942 Map of Chenango Forks

About this map

The Tioughnioga River and Chenango River converge at Chenango Forks, forming a vital waterway junction that shaped the development of northern Broome County. This mid-century landscape is defined by the heavy presence of the Delaware Lackawanna and Western and Delaware and Hudson railroads, which parallel the riverbanks and connect settlements like Port Crane and Chenango Bridge. The era's public works are visible in the layout of Chenango Valley State Park, which includes a CCC Camp, a Golf Course, and Lily Lake. Beyond the valley floor, the terrain rises toward Pigeon Hill and Hunt Hill, where a network of rural schoolhouses, including School No 5 and School No 23, served dispersed communities such as North Fenton and Sanitaria Springs.
