1965 Map of Rexville

About this map

Bennetts Creek carves a deep valley through the high hills of southern Steuben County, anchoring a landscape defined by small rural hamlets and upland farming. In the mid-1960s, these remote settlements remained connected by a network of winding township roads such as Christian Hollow Rd and Keenan Road. The map reveals a community centered around faith and memory, with numerous family and parish sites like St Marys Ch and Hauber Cem scattered across the ridges. Industrial activity is concentrated in the creek bottoms and lower slopes, evidenced by several Gravel Pits and scattered Gas Wells. The southern boundary transition into Pennsylvania is marked by smaller drainages like Wileyville Brook and White Branch, where the terrain begins to flatten toward the state line near the hamlet of Wileyville.
