About this map

The village of Brocton serves as the focal point of this Chautauqua County survey, where the terrestrial landscape meets the southern shore of Lake Erie. The settlement pattern follows the established transit corridors of the Portland township area, with residential clusters like Vineyard and Green Hills situated along the rail and road arteries that parallel the coastline. Near the lakeshore, the geography is defined by vacation and residential points such as Van Buren Point and Greencrest, tucked along Van Buren Bay.

Moving inland, the terrain is carved by several drainages, including Little Canadaway Cr and Slippery Rock Cr, which flow toward the lake. Local history is anchored by markers such as the Pecor Cemetery and the rural crossroads of Lamberton. The map documents a blend of agricultural operations like Waterdogs Farm and established village infrastructure, reflecting the enduring connection between the grape-growing region's economy and its lakeside environment.
