1918 Map of Unadilla

About this map

Rockwells Mills and Mount Upton occupy a landscape defined by the convergence of the Unadilla River and the Susquehanna River during the early twentieth century. This survey documents a dense network of upland agriculture and valley industry, where the New York Ontario and Western RR and the New Berlin Branch connect small farming hamlets like Gilbertsville and Rockdale. The map illustrates the local infrastructure of the era through dozens of numbered schoolhouses, including Shumway Hill School and Rogers Hollow School, alongside spiritual centers such as the Friends Meeting House. Genealogists will find interest in named rural intersections like Lathams Corners, Godfreys Corners, and Mallorys Corner, which mark the traditional family seats of the region's early twentieth-century residents.
