1949 Map of Cowlesville

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Cayuga Creek winds through the heart of this western New York landscape, anchoring a network of small agricultural hamlets during the mid-century. The settlement of Cowlesville sits at a prominent bend in the creek, while other rural centers like Folsomdale and Bennington serve as focal points for the surrounding farmsteads. This 1949 topography, compiled in part from 1942 aerial photography, reveals a high density of rural schoolhouses, such as School No 20 and School No 14, indicating a localized social structure before widespread district consolidation.
