1942 Map of Oran

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Limestone Creek and its many tributaries carve a series of dramatic ravines and waterfalls across this landscape southeast of Syracuse. The topography is defined by significant features such as Edwards Falls, Brickyard Falls, and the notable Pratts Falls County Park, all appearing during a period of established rural infrastructure. The map illustrates a dense network of local education, marking numerous one-room schoolhouses such as School No 14 and School No 10, along with the prominent Manlius Sch in the north. The cultural landscape is anchored by the Indian Hill Memorial and scattered family or community burial grounds including Southwell Cem and Pease Cem. Transport is dominated by the N Y C railroad line skirting Cazenovia Lake and the historic Cherry Valley Turnpike cutting east-west through the hills, connecting small crossroads like Pompey Center and Oran.
