About this map

Tuscarora Creek winds through the central valley of this Steuben County landscape, anchoring the settlement of Woodhull. The surrounding terrain is defined by a network of steep-walled drainages and named elevations, such as Earl Beatty Hill and the prominent Norway Ridge to the southeast. These geographical features dictated the placement of early roads and small family cemeteries that dot the hillsides, including Red Cem and Chenango Cem.

Deep hollows like Cook Hollow and Biscuit Hollow illustrate the rural character of the region, where narrow passages provided the primary routes for development. The map details a sophisticated network of local roads such as Borden Pulteney Hill Rd and Woodhull Holden Brook Rd, which follow the contours of the land. These paths connected isolated farmsteads to the village center and neighboring Jasper, reflecting a long-standing agricultural and residential pattern in the Southern Tier.
