2023 Map of North Clymer

About this map

French Creek and its many tributaries, including Perkins Creek and Alder Bottom Creek, define the drainage patterns of this southwestern Chautauqua County landscape. The area is characterized by a series of small, rural settlements such as North Clymer, Clymer Center, and Jaquins, connected by a network of local roads like Panama Rock Rd and Bailey Hill Rd. These crossroads often feature small family or community burial grounds, including Wait's Corners Cem and Clymer Center Cem, which provide significant points of interest for genealogical research. The topography is varied, rising to heights at Sweet Hill and dipping into wetlands like Perkins Swamp and Tamarack Swamp. Traces of earlier infrastructure remain visible in the layout of the land, such as the corridor along Railroad St in North Clymer, reflecting the historical role of local transport in the region's development.
