About this map

Owasco Inlet carves through the landscape of southern Cayuga County, defining the central axis of the Owasco Valley during this early 1940s survey. The village of Moravia serves as the primary hub, where Mill Creek meets the valley floor and the Lehigh Valley railroad line parallels the water. To the east, the terrain rises sharply toward Montville, home to Montville Falls and the St Patricks Cem, while the deep ravines of Fillmore Glen State Park show the dramatic geological erosion characteristic of the Finger Lakes region. Rural life is anchored by a dense network of numbered schools, including School No 8 and School No 4, and small crossroads settlements like Locke and Satterly Corners. Evidence of early history is found at the Indian Mound near Sylvan Lake, while family-named corners such as Rafferty Corners and Perkins Corners mark the enduring legacy of local landowners.
