Lake Ontario forms the northern boundary of this Niagara County landscape, where the shoreline meets a grid of rural roads and orchards. The village of Barker serves as a central hub, situated along Quaker Rd and Main St, while smaller settlements like Somerset, West Somerset, and North Hartland are scattered across the interior. The land is drained by several waterways, including Golden Hill Creek and Johnson Creek, which cut through the level terrain toward the lake. This 2019 survey documents the enduring agricultural and residential character of the region. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local burial grounds, including Somerset Cem, West Somerset Cem, and Quaker Cem, providing precise locations for historical research in this corner of New York.
