About this map

The Chemung River valley defines this region south of Elmira, where the village of Wellsburg serves as a key settlement near the Pennsylvania border. The river's path is flanked by landforms such as Baldwin Island and the rising elevations of Shoemaker Mountain and Narrow Hill. The landscape is a mix of clustered residential areas like Holly Park Terrace and agricultural spaces such as Millards Berry Farm and Foxwin Farm.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites across the terrain, including Ashland Cemetery, Dutchtown Cemetery, and the North Chemung Cemetery. The road network connects small crossroads and hollows, from Wacombers Corners in the north down through Elston Hollow to the riverfront at Lowman. Local history is anchored by landmarks like the Wellsburg Baptist Church and the preserved green space of Birchland Park, reflecting the community's established character along the historic southern tier corridor.
