About this map

East Branch Cazenovia Creek carves a significant valley through this portion of Erie County, dictating the placement of settlements and transport corridors like the Aurora Expy. The village of Holland serves as a southern anchor, while the hamlet of South Wales occupies a central position where the creek valley narrows. The surrounding uplands are defined by high-elevation features such as Cherrywood Ridge and Crow Hill, which provide a contrast to the deep incision of Gears Gulf near the southern boundary.

Genealogists and local historians will find a dense distribution of family and community burial grounds, including the Goodleberg Cem and Saint Joseph Cem. The map reveals a landscape of dispersed rural settlements like Blakeley and Vermont Hill, connected by a network of winding roads such as Sanders Hill Rd and Hunter Cr road. These features document the established rural character and residential patterns of the area in the twenty-first century.
