About this map

Big Salmon Creek and its many tributaries, including Little Salmon Creek and Paines Creek, carve through this central New York landscape. This 2013 survey reveals a high density of small settlements and intersections that have anchored the community for generations, such as King Ferry, Five Corners, and Genoa. The land remains primarily agricultural, evidenced by named properties like Backbone Hill Farm and Eikendale Farms.

For genealogists, the map is a remarkable record of local burial sites and family names, documenting numerous small plots like the Rathbun And Chase Cemetery, Tuppers Corners Cemetery, and Goodyears Corners Cemetery. Terrain features like Bennett Hill and Miller Hill rise above the stream valleys, while the Forks of the Creek marks a significant hydrological junction near Belltown. This modern digital topographic study maintains the traditional nomenclature of the Finger Lakes region's interior upland.
