1950 Map of Clifton

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Oatka Creek and Black Creek define the drainage of this Monroe County landscape, where the agricultural legacy of Wheatland, Chili, and Riga meets mid-century suburban expansion. The transition from rural to residential is visible in the purple-shaded growth around North Chili, anchored by Roberts Wesleyan College. Further south, the hamlet of Garbutt sits near the creek's bend, marked by its USGS Gaging Sta and Garbutt Cem. The area’s transportation history is recorded through the Penn Central rail lines and the prominent Airway Beacon near West Chili. Genealogists will find a high density of small burial grounds, including the Fellows Cem, Clifton Cem, and the Quaker Cem near Scottsville. The map also captures several distinct local centers like South Chili, Belcoda, and the cluster at Five Points.
