About this map

Rushville and Gorham anchor this landscape in Ontario and Yates counties, where a dense network of country roads connects long-standing agricultural hamlets. The terrain is defined by the northward flow of Flint Creek and the southern course of the West River, with the elevated ground of Harkness Hill and Lazarus Hill rising between the drainage basins.

Genealogical interest is particularly high here, as the map records numerous family-named landmarks and historical burial grounds, including Pickett's Corners Cemetery, Reed's Corners Cemetery, and the Shuman Cemetery near Potter Swamp. Small settlement clusters such as Baldwin Corners, Reed Corners, and Babbitt Corner suggest the 19th-century rural framework that persists into the modern era, while Midlakes Airport represents a later addition to the traditional land use pattern.
