1926 Map of Wellsville

About this map

The Genesee River carves a deep valley through Allegany County, anchoring the industrial and transport hubs of Wellsville and Andover during the mid-1920s. This survey records the heavy influence of the Erie R.R. and the Liberty Highway in shaping the region's connectivity, while the surrounding uplands like Beech Hill remain dotted with numerous rural district schools. In the southern reaches, the New York Pennsylvania Boundary Line cuts across the landscape near the settlement of Shongo. Small family-named hollows such as Whiteman Hollow and Duffy Hollow illustrate the rugged topography that funnels traffic toward the river basins. Notable local landmarks like the Weidrich Bridge and the Stone Dam on the Genesee River provide specific points of interest for researchers tracing early twentieth-century infrastructure and water management in the Southern Tier.
