1904 Map of Wayland

USGS Topo · Published 1931

About this map

The Finger Lakes region of western New York reveals a deeply etched glacial landscape at the turn of the century, characterized by the narrow north-south oriented waters of Conesus Lake, Hemlock Lake, and Canadice Lake. The settlement of Dansville serves as a primary hub in the south, positioned where the Delaware Lackawanna and Western RR skirts the steep slopes of the North Dansville hills. Industrial activity is evidenced by the Stones Falls Mill along the Western New York and Pennsylvania RR corridor, while the eastern hills are dotted with remote agricultural hamlets like Tabor Corners and Patchinville. The terrain is remarkably varied, from the broad valley of Canaseraga Creek to the sharp relief of Marrowback Hill and the dramatic Stony Brook Glen, illustrating the intersection of late 19th-century rail transport with a challenging upland geography.
