About this map

Wellsville serves as the industrial and population hub of this 1920s Allegany County survey, situated where the Genesee River meets the heavy rail traffic of the Erie RR. The map records a landscape transitioning from early rural settlements like Irish Settlement and Paynesville toward a more connected regional economy. Evidence of earlier infrastructure remains visible at Stone Dam and the Weidrich Bridge, while the Liberty Highway cuts through the river valleys. The topography is defined by significant elevations such as Tip Top and Round Top, with numerous numbered schools like School No 9 and School No 10 serving the dispersed farming communities in townships like Willing and Independence. Along the southern edge, the New York Pennsylvania Boundary Line marks the limit of the state’s jurisdiction near the headwaters of Cryder Creek.
