2016 Map of Windham

About this map

The borderlands between Tioga County, New York, and Bradford County, Pennsylvania, are defined by a series of narrow stream valleys and ridgelines. Wappasening Creek and Wysox Cr carve through the landscape, anchoring small settlements like Windham Center and North Orwell. The area is notably dense with small, family-associated burial grounds, including the Roswell Russell Farm Cem, Rogers Family Cem, and Babcock Hill Cem, reflecting a long history of local lineage and ancestral land ownership. Larger water bodies such as Lake Nadine and Lake Bonin sit amidst the high ground, while numerous hollows like Briggs Hollow and Cotton Hollow define the local topography. This 2016 survey highlights a persistent rural character where 19th-century settlement patterns remain visible through the distribution of small hamlets and the network of historic roads like State Line Rd and Orwell Hill Rd.
