1953 Map of Rathbone

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Canisteo River carves a deep path through southern Steuben County, anchoring a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and narrow creek valleys. Along its banks, the Erie RR corridor serves the small settlement of Cameron Mills and the community of Rathbone, reflecting the mid-century reliance on river-and-rail transport for this pocket of New York. To the north, the terrain rises toward Forty Dollar Hill and the scattered hamlets of Risingville and Thurston. This 1953 field check reveals a rural social infrastructure of remote schools and places of worship, including the Aldrich Sch and the Town Line Ch. The distribution of burial grounds, such as the Cameron Hill Cem and Risingville Cem, provides essential points of reference for genealogists tracing family footprints across the varied ridges and hollows like Helmer Hollow.
