2016 Map of Truxton

About this map

The East Branch Tioughnioga River carves a deep valley through this part of Cortland County, dictating the settlement patterns of Truxton and East Homer. This 2016 survey illustrates a landscape where modern infrastructure follows historic corridors, with the East Branch Tioughnioga River Bridge serving as a key crossing point near the hamlet of East River. The map provides significant detail for genealogists, identifying several distinct burial grounds including Saint Patricks Cem, the Old Presbyterian Church Cem, and the Truxton Village Protestant Cem. Beyond the river valley, the terrain rises sharply toward Morgan Hill and Truxton Hill, while smaller communities like Crains Mills and Cheningo occupy the peripheral valleys and hollows. The network of secondary routes, such as Haights Gulf Rd and Morgan Hill Rd, connects these isolated upland settlements to the primary valley centers.
