About this map

Caroline Center and the village of Speedsville anchor this rural landscape in the Southern Tier, where a network of family-named roads connects historic hamlets. The terrain is defined by the high ground of Bald Mountain and the deep incision of Shindagin Hollow, with numerous creeks including W Br Owego Cr and Willseyville Cr draining the hillsides.

Genealogists will find a wealth of local burial sites, such as the Caroline Centre Cem and Speedsville Cem, providing evidence of early settlement patterns near the border of Tioga and Tompkins counties. Historical infrastructure is further highlighted by the Padlock Lookout Tower and named crossroads like Guide Board Corners, which illustrate the community-focused organization of the area prior to modern development.
