About this map

Tonawanda Creek snakes through the center of this landscape, defining the geography of the borderlands between Erie and Genesee counties. The village of Akron sits in the southwest corner, adjacent to Murder Creek and the Akron Airport. The area is notably dense with early burial grounds, including the Four Corners Cemetery and several religious sites like the Saint Theresa Roman Catholic Cemetery and the Presbyterian Church Cemetery.

Further east, the settlements of Alabama and Basom are connected by a network of rural roads such as Ledge Rd and Lewiston Rd. The terrain is marked by significant waterways like Ledge Creek and Whitney Creek, which flow through the agricultural fields and wetlands. The presence of the Long House Cemetery and Indian Falls Cemetery provides specific points of interest for genealogists tracing family lineages in this part of Western New York.
