1954 Map of Cherry Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The West Branch Conewango Creek valley defines this landscape at the boundary of Chautauqua and Cattaraugus counties, where the Erie RR and a network of dairy-era roads connect small agricultural crossroads. The village of Cherry Creek stands as a primary hub, complete with its RR Sta and the Shattuck School, while South Dayton anchors the northern portion of the sheet near Skunks Corner. The terrain transitions from the broad, ditched lowlands of the Dredge Ditch to the higher elevations of Aldrich Hill and Pickup Hill. Local genealogy is well-served by numerous named intersections like Balcom Corners, Meyers Corners, and Rays Corners, alongside rural educational landmarks such as the Pine Valley Central Sch and Gardner Sch. The presence of the Union Cem near Leon and the systematic Drainage Ditch system reflect the mid-century effort to manage the marshy creek bottoms for productive use.
