About this map

Boylston Center serves as a central point in this rural landscape, where a network of county roads connects small settlements across the northern New York countryside. The area is defined by a dendritic drainage pattern of numerous creeks, including Bear Creek, Fox Creek, and Raystone Creek, which wind through the low-lying terrain. To the south, the expansive Tamarack Swamp and the elevation of Shoecraft Hill provide a contrast to the settled crossroads.

Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local burial grounds such as Saint Josephs Cemetery, Phelps Cemetery, and the Greenboro Cemetery near the southern edge of the quadrangle. Smaller hamlets like Smartville, Plantz Corners, and East Boylston represent the dispersed settlement history of the region. The map also captures the path of historic local thoroughfares like French Settlement Rd and Blount Mill Dr, tracing the legacy of early infrastructure in Jefferson and Oswego counties.
