USGS Topo · Published 1949About this map
The Raisin River winds through this post-war landscape, connecting the village of Manchester with the smaller settlements of Norvell and Sharon Hollow. The regional infrastructure of 1949 is defined by the New York Central railroad, which threads through the townships of Norvell, Manchester, and Napoleon. Local life is anchored by a dense network of rural schoolhouses, including the Craft Sch, Pierce Sch, and English Sch, many of which served as primary social hubs for the surrounding farmsteads.
