1943 Map of Milford

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Susquehanna River defines the central valley of this Otsego County landscape, where the Delaware and Hudson railroad tracks parallel the water through Milford and south toward Portlandville. This mid-century survey captures a rural New York economy organized around these transport corridors and the smaller creek valleys of the Cherry Valley Creek and Schenevus Creek. Higher elevations like Crumhorn Mountain and Burying Ground Hill remain largely undeveloped, while the valley floors are dotted with local landmarks for genealogists, including School No 8 and several family-named burial sites like Waters Cem. The lower reaches of the map show the impact of river management on the terrain, notably at Goodyear Lake near Cliffside, illustrating the 1940s balance between agricultural land and growing water infrastructure.
