1970 Map of Ovid

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Seneca Army Depot dominates the northern reaches of this Finger Lakes landscape, illustrating the significant military footprint in Seneca County during the late twentieth century. Centered between the deep waters of Seneca Lake and Cayuga Lake, the map documents a transition from the agricultural heritage of Ovid and Romulus to specialized institutional land use. The extensive facilities at Willard State Hospital occupy a prominent position on the western shore, while the Lehigh Valley Railroad corridor provides a glimpse into the regional transport network. Genealogists will find a dense concentration of burial grounds, including the Holy Cross Cem (Union Cem), McNeal Cem, and Covert Cem. From the coastal reach of Poplar Beach to the interior wetlands of Bilberry Swamp, this survey provides a look at the varied terrain and settlement patterns of this central New York peninsula.
