About this map

Oatka Creek winds through the southern portion of this region, providing the drainage for settlements like Garbutt and Mumford during the mid-1930s. The landscape is defined by its agrarian roots and the essential infrastructure of the New York Central and Pennsylvania railroads, which facilitated movement between the smaller hubs of Clifton and Scottsville. Local education and community life are well-documented through a dense network of numbered schoolhouses, such as School No 10 near the sawmill, and historic religious centers like Chesbro Seminary in North Chili. Genealogists will find several burial grounds mapped with precision, including the Quaker Cem and Fellows Cem. To the north, Black Creek meanders toward Buckbee Corners, while an Airway Beacon near the center of the sheet highlights the early integration of aviation infrastructure into the rural New York countryside.
