1943 Map of Owasco

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Owasco Lake and Skaneateles Lake define the eastern and western boundaries of this Finger Lakes landscape during the early 1940s. The interior terrain is shaped by the deep incision of Dutch Hollow Brook, with a network of numbered schoolhouses and small crossroads settlements serving the rural population. Notable hubs like Owasco and Niles appear alongside distinct neighborhood markers such as Valentine Corners and Twelve Corners. Local history and genealogy are well-represented by several burial sites, including the Owasco Cem and Conklin Cem. The map captures an era of localized industry and education, evidenced by the Twelve Corners (Quar) and school buildings like School No 10. Shoreline landmarks such as Indian Cove and Southeast Owasco indicate the early development of these waterfronts before later twentieth-century expansion.
