1942 Map of Pulteney

USGS Topo · Published 1942

About this map

The western branch of Keuka Lake and the steep slopes of Bluff Point Ridge dominate this landscape, illustrating the agricultural and seasonal patterns of the central Finger Lakes during the early 1940s. The settlement of Pulteney serves as a local hub near the shoreline, supported by smaller hamlets like Branchport to the north and South Pulteney to the south. The mapping reveals a well-established network of rural education and memorial sites, including School No. 7 and the Garrett Memorial Chapel overlooking the water. In the uplands, family-named landmarks such as Chidsey Point and Gloade Corners punctuate the grid of farm roads. The presence of numerous orchards and vineyards along the lakefront, alongside features like Jubertown Swamp and Guyanoga Creek, highlights the specialized land use dictated by the region's unique microclimate and glacial topography.
