1955 Map of Truxton

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Tioughnioga River and its meandering tributaries dominate this mid-century portrait of northeastern Cortland County. The valley floor serves as a vital corridor for both the Lehigh Valley railroad and local commerce, connecting settlements like Truxton and East Homer through the East Branch Valley Road. Uplands are defined by significant public land holdings, including several numbered State Reforestation Areas and the N Y State College of Forestry grounds near the Tully Forest Line. Local life is anchored by traditional landmarks such as the East Homer Sch and St Patricks Cem. The mapping of small hamlets like Crains Mills and East River reveals a landscape transitioning from historical milling and agrarian foundations to modern conservation and reforestation efforts during the 1950s.
