2023 Map of Lisle

About this map

The rolling highlands of Broome County are defined by a series of steep ridges and creek valleys, where small settlements have persisted for generations. Lisle sits in the northeast corner along Dudley Creek, while the western portion of the map is shaped by the Tioga Co and Broome Co boundary line. This border cuts through a landscape marked by family-named landmarks like Popple Hill Rd and Briggs Hill Rd, reflecting a long history of upland farming and rural life. In the southern reaches, Ketchumville and Glen Aubrey serve as local hubs, each anchored by their respective burial grounds, the Ketchumville Cem and Glen Aubrey Cem. The drainage patterns of Nanticoke Creek and its Ketchumville Branch illustrate the area's complex topography, which rises toward the prominent peak of Mount Hunger. Local genealogy is well-represented through numerous hillside cemeteries, including the Mount Hunger Cem and Center Lisle Cem, which offer significant research value for tracing residents of these historic hamlets.
