2010 Map of Willet

About this map

The Otselic River valley serves as the central artery for this region of New York, where small agricultural hamlets and crossroads communities remain clearly defined. Settlement patterns follow the winding river and its many tributaries, such as Willet Creek and Landers Creek, which cut through the local topography. The map illustrates a landscape dotted with historically significant nodes for genealogists and local historians, including the clustered burials at Willet Village Cemetery and the more remote Hazard Corners Cemetery. Small settlements like Texas Valley and Upper Lisle anchor the corners of the quadrangle, connected by a network of rural routes like Gee Brook Rd and Texas Valley Rd. To the north, water bodies such as High Lake and the ominously named Bloody Pond provide distinct geographical landmarks within this predominantly rural landscape.
