1952 Map of Furnaceville

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Furnaceville and the shoreline of Lake Ontario anchor this mid-century portrait of Wayne County, New York. The landscape is defined by a dense network of country lanes such as Boston Road and Brick School Road, serving a community distributed among small clusters like Centenary and Lakeside. Near the water, Ontario On the Lake shows a concentrated residential pattern along the bluff, while Smoky Point and Bear Creek Harbor mark the interface between the land and the lake. Genealogical interest is found in local landmarks including Lakeside Cem and School No 13. The topography, revised in 1969, reveals the drainage patterns of Deer Creek and Bear Creek as they flow north through fruit-growing country toward the harbor, illustrating the area's transition from 19th-century furnace operations to a mid-20th-century agricultural and residential character.
