About this map

Rexville and Barney Mills sit along the winding path of Marsh Cr, where steep hillsides define the rural geography of the Allegany and Steuben County border. This 21st-century survey documents a landscape of scattered small settlements and family-named hollows, including Quig Hollow and Christian Hollow. The area is notably dense with small burial grounds that serve as vital touchstones for genealogical research, such as Rough And Ready Cem near the uniquely named Rough and Ready community, and the New Saint Mary's Church Yard Cem.

Upland terrain features like Irish Hill and Wheeler Hill overlook a network of country roads connecting remote points like McGraws and Wileyville. The southern portion of the map is defined by the headwaters of the N Fork Cowanesque River, illustrating the high-elevation drainage patterns of the Southern Tier. These details provide a clear view of the persistent rural character of these townships.
