About this map

The Genesee River valley dominates this landscape, where the waters of Canaseraga Creek and Keshequa Creek converge within a complex network of agricultural and institutional history. The central portion of the map is defined by the extensive grounds of the Craig State School, including its namesake Craig State School Cem, a site that reflects the era's approach to large-scale state institutional planning. Transport and industry are marked by the presence of Seven Gullies Airport and several distinct hamlets such as Groveland Station and Kysorville.

The terrain transitions from the broad river flats into dissected uplands marked by Mill Gully and Wildcat Gully. Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous burial grounds documented across the townships, including Williamsburg Cem and Dutch Street Cem. The layout of the region, from the residential streets of Mount Morris to the outlying settlement at Union Corners, illustrates the persistent rural-industrial character of this part of Livingston County.
