About this map

The Chemung River valley anchors this detailed 2010 study of the New York-Pennsylvania border, where the communities of Waverly, East Waverly, and Chemung transition from the river flats into the hills of Tioga County. The map documents a complex landscape of rural cemeteries and family-named terrain, including Hicks Cemetery in the northwest and Price-Simcoe Cemetery near Putnam Hill. The southern edge of the quadrangle is defined by the heavy infrastructure of the Norfolk Southern railroad line and the concentrated residential developments of North Waverly and Cedar Park Terrace.

Upland areas are marked by narrow runs and hollows, such as Reniff Run and King Hollow, which feed into the larger Cayuta Creek drainage system. The presence of the Waverly Reservoirs and several small ponds like Dodge Pond reflect the water management needs of these border settlements. This edition preserves the location of smaller crossroads and hamlets like Lockwood and Owens Mills, providing a clear record of the road network connecting the river valley to the more remote hillsides.
