1944 Map of Truxton

About this map

The Tioughnioga River valley serves as the primary corridor for settlement and transit in this mid-century New York landscape. This survey captures a rural network of small hamlets and namesake mills, including Truxton and Crains Mills, linked by the Lehigh Valley railroad line. The map is particularly notable for its dense record of local education history, preserving the locations of numerous district schoolhouses such as the curiously named South America Sch, Log Sch, and Pelham Sch. The terrain is defined by significant elevations like Truxton Hill and Morgan Hill, which separate the river valley from the drainage of Cheningo Creek. These hillsides were home to a dispersed network of farms reached by early thoroughfares like South Hill Road and Gilbert Rd, providing a clear view of the agrarian economy before modern development consolidated these rural communities.
