1953 Map of Rheims

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Fivemile Creek serves as the central drainage for this section of Steuben County, carving a valley followed by the Kanona & Prattsburgh RR. The agricultural and small-town character of the mid-1950s is evident in the cluster of hamlets such as Wheeler, Mitchellsville, and Rheims. To the south, the Cohocton River valley and the Erie RR anchor the settlement of Kanona. This survey reveals a landscape of high ridges like Wheeler Hill and Harrisburg Hill interspersed with numerous country cemeteries and rural religious landmarks, including the Wheeler Hill Ch. Near the southeastern corner, the proximity to the Finger Lakes region is signaled by Keuka Inlet and the settlement of Pleasant Valley, where the terrain begins to drop toward the lake basin.
