1942 Map of Stanley

USGS Topo · Published 1942

About this map

Pennsylvania and Lehigh Valley rail corridors intersect the landscape of central Ontario County, anchoring the agricultural trade centers of Stanley and Flint. This 1942 survey, prepared by the Corps of Engineers and the Tennessee Valley Authority, details a highly developed rural network defined by named school districts and crossroads hamlets. The State Agricultural Experiment Station near Geneva signals the region's importance to New York's farming economy during the war years. Local history is deeply etched into the terrain through a system of numbered schools, such as School No 12 near Hall, and venerable landmarks like the Old Number Nine Church. Waterways such as Flint Creek and Burrell Creek cut through the drumlin-dominated topography, where individual land use is marked by several small family and community burial grounds, including Sand Hill Cem and Brookside Cem.
