1926 Map of Wellsville

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

The Genesee River valley dominates this mid-1920s survey, serving as a primary corridor for both the Erie R R and the Pennsylvania R R as they navigate the Allegany County highlands. The village of Wellsville emerges as a significant regional hub, where the river meets Dyke Creek and the rail lines converge. Outside the valley floor, the landscape is defined by a dense network of numbered school districts and named hollows, such as Whiteman Hollow and Knight Hollow, reflecting a robust rural population engaged in upland farming. Transport routes like the Liberty Highway connect established settlements including Andover and Whitesville. Smaller communities like Stannards Corners, York Corners, and the Irish Settlement provide evidence of early 20th-century social clusters centered around crossroad schoolhouses and local creek branches like Chenunda Creek.
