2016 Map of Wellsville North

About this map

The Genesee River carves a significant path through this portion of Allegany County, anchoring the valley settlements of Scio and the northern edge of Wellsville. The landscape is defined by its deep hollows and prominent rises, including Oak Hill and Round Top, which overlook a network of tributary streams like Vandermark Creek and Knight Cr. This 2016 representation of the terrain captures the rural character of the region, where family and community heritage is preserved in numerous burial grounds such as Fairlawn Cem, Saint Joseph's Cem, and the remote Black Cem. The drainage patterns, including Brimmer Brook and Dyke Creek, illustrate the complex hydrology feeding the Genesee. Local connectivity is maintained through named routes like Irish Settlement Rd and Wadsworth Hill Rd, which navigate the steep gradients between the river valley and the upland ridges of Pixley Hill.
