2010 Map of Corfu

About this map

Alden and Corfu anchor this survey of western New York, which documents a landscape defined by its network of creeks and small settlements. The area is intersected by numerous watercourses including Murder Creek, Ellicott Creek, and Elevenmile Creek, which flow through a grid of rural roads such as County Line Rd and Seven Day Rd. For genealogists, the map is particularly detailed in its marking of burial grounds, from the Old Buffalo Road Cemetery in the northeast to Our Lady of Good Counsel Cemetery near Darien Center. Settlements like Crittenden, Fargo, and Pembroke are shown in their early 21st-century configuration, surrounded by agricultural land and woodlots. Significant local landmarks include Brick House Corners and Murrays Corner, while the presence of the Railroad St in Alden points to the community's historical connection to rail infrastructure.
