About this map

Ischua Creek and its valley serve as the primary corridor for development and transport through the heart of Cattaraugus County in the early 1920s. This survey captures a network of rural school districts and small rail-dependent settlements at their peak, featuring a high density of local educational sites such as Checkered School, Buffalo Road School, and Meadow View School. The landscape is dominated by the intersecting routes of the Pennsylvania and Rochester and Pittsburgh railroads, which facilitated the growth of shipping points like Elton Sta and Farmersville Station. Near Machias, the presence of the County Farm and proximity to Lime Lake indicate a community structured around shared social services and local recreation. From the heights of Bush Hill to the wetlands around Beaver Lake, the map documents a transition from upland farming to specialized valley infrastructure.
