1943 Map of Schenevus
USGS Topo · Published 1983About this map
The Delaware and Hudson railroad corridor dictates the settlement patterns of this central Otsego County landscape, following the valley of Schenevus Creek. The village of Schenevus serves as a primary hub, flanked by smaller hamlets like Chaseville and Tuscan. This 1943 survey, updated with 1980s data, reveals a rural economy transitioning from early twentieth-century school districts to consolidated systems, evidenced by the numbered landmarks like School No 8 and School No 16 scattered across the hillsides. The terrain rises sharply from the valley floor to high points such as Hooker Mountain and Badeau Hill. In the north and west, Hooker Hill State Forest and South Hill State Forest preserve large tracts of timberland, while local genealogy is rooted in several rural burial grounds including Maple Grove Cem and Bliven Cem.
