About this map

McGraw serves as a primary hub of settlement in the mid-1940s, situated at the junction of several valley roads and the Delaware Lackawanna and Western railroad. The landscape is defined by the steep elevation changes between the Tioughnioga River valley and the surrounding uplands, such as Hicks Hill and Snyder Hill. This era shows a community still deeply connected to its rural infrastructure, evidenced by the high density of district schools including the White Schoolhouse, Old Stone Sch, and Shearer Sch scattered across the townships of Cortlandville and Solon. Significant local history is preserved in the numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Maplewood Cem and Mc Grawville Rural Cem. The map provides a clear record of the area's agricultural and transit-oriented development before modern interstate expansion altered the regional flow through Hoxie Gorge.
