1970 Map of Groton

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Lehigh Valley railroad tracks trace a curving path through the village of Freeville and northward past the George Junior Republic High Sch, anchoring a landscape of small crossroads settlements and dairy country. This 1970 revision shows a rural network of family-named corners such as Morton Corners, Riggs Corners, and Merchants Corners, reflecting the persistent agricultural footprint of central New York. The terrain is marked by the convergence of several waterways, including Fall Creek and Virgil Creek, which once powered local industry at sites like Red Mills. In the northeast corner, the Cortland National Fish Hatchery stands as a notable federal facility, while the numerous small cemeteries, such as St Patricks Cem and East Groton Cem, provide essential data points for local genealogists tracing the area’s pioneer families and early residents.
