2023 Map of Speedsville

About this map

Speedsville and Caroline Center anchor this 2023 survey of the hilly country straddling the Tompkins Co and Tioga Co line. The landscape is defined by deep incisions like Shindagin Hollow and the flow of West Branch Owego Creek, which historically shaped the placement of farmsteads and travel routes. Genealogists will find a wealth of burial records across this terrain, from the Central Chapel Cem and White Church Cem to the intimate Blair Family Plot. Modern recreation intersects with the historical landscape along the North Country National Scenic Trl, which winds through the central ridges. The map meticulously records numerous local roads, such as Goodrich Hill Rd and Old 76 Rd, which connect the small clusters of Upper Fairfield and Rawson Hollow to the surrounding agricultural and forested lands.
