Re: Wellsville, York County

I wonder if it's along Campground Road South of Wellsville
Maybe within the state Parks area ?

Maybe a Local History Book will Have the same Pic in it.

Good Luck !

Re: I don't think it is York co

Reason being.... Genesse Forks, sounds like that is up near NY border/Coudersport. Check old maps and records.

No Genesse creek around York County

The community was first known as Genesee Forks, well named for a spot located on the ... A railroad from Wellsville to Genesee existed as early as 1880.
