About this map

The Susquehanna River flows through this 1943 survey, serving as the boundary between the villages of Unadilla and South Unadilla. The transport corridor is defined by the Hudson and Delaware Railroad, which follows the riverbank, and a prominent Old Railroad Grade that traces the valley south of Poplar Hill. This era shows a landscape transitioning between agricultural roots and state-managed conservation, evidenced by the established Pine Hill State Forest.

Genealogists and local historians will find a dense network of rural infrastructure, including Sidney Center (Maywood Sta) and several outlying schools such as School No 12 and the Gillette Sch. Numerous family-named landmarks like Kilkenny Hill and Vandervort Hill rise above the drainage basins of Ouleout Creek and Carrs Creek, while several well-documented burial grounds, including Chestnut Hill Cem and Highland Cem, provide essential anchor points for tracing former residents.
