1953 Map of Savannah

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Montezuma Marsh dominates the southeastern quadrant of this landscape, where the Clyde River and the Erie Canal converge near the Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge. This water-heavy geography dictated the development of central New York transport, as evidenced by the proximity of Conrail tracks and the historic infrastructure at Lock No 26. The map details a network of rural crossroads and family-named landmarks that speak to the region's agricultural roots, including Shepards Corner and Noble Corner. Cultural sites like the Lockpit Cem and White Schoolhouse Corners are mapped alongside natural features like Crusoe Lake and Hogback Ridge. From the village of Clyde in the west to Savannah in the east, the sheet documents the transition from drumlin-dotted hills to the low-lying wetland systems that define the Wayne and Seneca County border.
