About this map

The New York and Pennsylvania RR snakes through the valley of Bennett Creek, connecting the rural hamlets of Bennetts, Greenwood, and Rexville in this mid-1920s survey. The landscape is defined by its dense network of district schools and local landmarks, from the Catholic Church School to the West Union Grange Hall. Settlement patterns follow the deep hollows and creek beds, with isolated communities like Rough and Ready and Alice established near the Pennsylvania border. Notable family-named terrain and institutions, such as Colonel Bill's Hill and Barney Mills, illustrate the ingrained local history of Steuben County. The infrastructure of the era is evident along State Highway No 17, while the higher elevations of Green Hill and Marsh Hill overlook a patchwork of small farms and parish churches like Spring Brook Church.
