About this map

Harrison Valley and Westfield serve as primary anchors along the northern edge of this Tioga and Potter County borderland. At the turn of the century, the region's economy is clearly defined by its geography and transit, with the Cowanesque River corridor supporting the New York Central and Hudson River R. R. and industrial sites like the Tannery. To the south, the landscape becomes a dense network of high ridges and deep hollows, such as Tubbs Hollow and Hardscrabble Hollow, which separate small agricultural and lumbering settlements. The Buffalo and Susquehanna R. R. (Genesee Division) follows the winding path of Pine Creek through the southwest, connecting remote outposts like Loucks Mills and West Pike to the broader market.
