About this map

The Cohocton River valley defines the western portion of this region, where the village of Savona sits at the junction of local transit routes and watercourses. This landscape is characterized by a series of north-south running valleys and high ground such as Irish Hill and Platt Hill. Moving east, the terrain shifts into a chain of small water bodies including Sanford Lake, Van-Keuren Lake, Round Lake, and Peterson Lake, which are interconnected by the winding path of Mud Creek. These lakes and the surrounding valley provide a distinct contrast to the higher elevations of Oak Hill nearby.

Smaller settlements like Sonora and South Bradford serve as local anchors in this Steuben County landscape. Genealogists will find several burial sites preserved on this sheet, including Seamens Cemetery and Riverside Cemetery near the river, as well as Sonora Cemetery and Mount Washington Cemetery further inland. The map documents a rural network of named roads, such as Hutches Rd and Birdseye Hollow Rd, that connect these historic hamlets and upland farms.
