About this map

Conewango Swamp and the headwaters of Conewango Cr dominate the northwestern terrain of this Cattaraugus County landscape. The region is defined by a network of steep valleys and plateaus, including Mosher Hollow and Tug Hill. Small settlements like New Albion and Cattaraugus are linked by a winding road network such as Kellogg Hill Rd and Leon New Albion Rd.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family-named burial grounds across the hills, including Malks Cem, Snyder Hill Cem, and Park Lawn Cem. The presence of the Neverland Airport near Ritter Rd offers a look at local aviation infrastructure amid the predominately rural and agricultural landscape of western New York. The map also traces several major waterways, including Cold Spring Cr and the South Branch Cattaraugus Creek in the northeast corner.
