2016 Map of Brewerton

About this map

The Oneida River flows westward from Oneida Lake at Brewerton, forming the winding border between Oswego and Onondaga Counties. This central New York landscape is defined by its complex hydrology, where Peat Swamp and numerous seasonal creeks like Shaver Cr and Youngs Cr intersect with the expanding suburban footprints of Clay and North Syracuse. To the west, the Seneca River meets the Oneida, creating a network of islands including Schroeppel Island and Glosky Island. Genealogists will find several significant burial sites, from the Riverside Cem near the riverbanks to the more inland Morgan's Cem and Pine Plains Cem. The transition from rural crossroad settlements like Euclid and Rodger Corner to modern developments is visible through the dense local road network and the presence of the Bryant and Stratton Coll Liverpool Campus.
