1943 Map of Sempronius

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The town of Sempronius and its rural neighbors are depicted here in the early 1940s, revealing a landscape defined by sharp glacial topography and a network of namesake corners. The map showcases a traditional New York rural economy through the presence of Morse Mill and Grout Mill, alongside a dense system of district schools, including School No 5 and School No 8, which anchored these upland communities. At the heart of the terrain lies Lake Como, with its drainage following the winding path of Dresserville Creek toward the village of Dresserville. This survey captures the transition of the land from intensive farming toward recreation, noted by the inclusion of Fillmore Glen State Park in the west and the various family burial grounds like Wilcox Cem and Eaton Cem that dot the hillsides of the Cayuga and Cortland county line.
