1947 Map of North Western

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

The Mohawk River and Black River define the western corridors of this Oneida County landscape, where agriculture and early settlements established deep roots in the post-war era. The survey captures a high-density of rural infrastructure, from the village of North Western to smaller hamlets like Frenchville and Big Brook. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, including Penn Mtn Cem, Steuben Cem, and Nesbitt Cem, which are scattered among the prominent heights of Maple Mtn and Carmichael Hill. The presence of South Hill Sch and Gifford Hill Sch points to a decentralized educational system that served these upland farming communities. The southern reaches around East Floyd and Camroden show a network of creeks like Sixmile Creek and Cincinnati Creek feeding the local water system, providing a clear picture of the mid-century township boundaries between Western, Steuben, and Floyd.
