2013 Map of South Canisteo

About this map

Bennetts Cr and Colonel Bills Cr carve through the southern New York landscape in this modern study of Steuben County. The settlement pattern here is distinctly rural, defined by crossroads like South Canisteo, Hampshire, and Bennetts, connected by a winding network of local routes such as Doe Run and Rock Run Rd. For those researching local lineages, the map identifies numerous family-named burial grounds including Carter Cem, Thomas Cem, and the Marsh Hill Cem. The terrain is characterized by named elevations and depressions such as Bush Hill, Jackson Hill, and Leahy Hollow, reflecting the region's complex topography. This survey provides a clear view of land use just after the turn of the 21st century, showing how modern infrastructure follows the natural paths carved by waterways like Tuscarora Cr and Rock Run.
