About this map

The boundary between Tompkins County and Tioga County cuts through this rural landscape, anchoring a network of small settlements and family burial grounds in the Southern Tier. At the center of the local community, the village of Speedsville sits near the headwaters of Boyer Creek, while Caroline Center and Upper Fairfield provide further context for the region's scattered residential clusters. The land is defined by prominent elevations like Bald Mountain and the deep incisions of Shindagin Hollow and Rawson Hollow.

For those tracing local lineage, the sheet is exceptionally detailed in its documentation of historical cemeteries. From the Blair Family Plot to the Central Chapel Cemetery and Woodbridge Cemetery, these sites offer vital markers for genealogists. The modern inclusion of the North Country National Scenic Trail winding through the hills highlights the transition of this area from a primary farming and timbering district into one valued for its recreational terrain.
