About this map

Seneca River and Oswego River converge in this mid-century portrait of a central New York waterway hub. The village of Baldwinsville serves as the focal point, situated at the junction of the Seneca River, the Erie Canal, and the Delaware Lackawanna and Western railroad. North of the village, the Three Rivers State Game Management Area occupies a significant portion of the landscape between Lysander and Schroeppel, bordered by the winding path of the Oneida River.

Genealogists can trace local legacies through numerous burial grounds such as Riverside Cemetery, Myrtle Grove Cem, and Chase Cem. The map documents the mid-century infrastructure of the region, from the Microwave Tower near West Phoenix to the industrial presence of the New York Central lines. Smaller communities like Belgium, Moyers Corners, and Hinmansville are depicted alongside their local institutions, including St Marys Ch and the Van Buren Sch.
