1897 Map of Albion
USGS Topo · Published 1897About this map
The Erie Canal anchors the northern landscape of this late-nineteenth-century survey, passing directly through the heart of Albion and Holley. This critical transportation corridor is complemented by the New York Central and Hudson River R.R. (Niagara Falls Line), which parallels the canal and facilitated the region's agricultural export economy. Moving south, the terrain shifts from the organized grids of the canal towns into the expansive Oak Orchard Swamp, a significant natural feature that separates the northern settlements from the rolling landscape of Genesee County.
