About this map

The northern reaches of Monroe County meet the waters of Lake Ontario in this detailed survey of the Hamlin quadrangle. The shoreline is characterized by public lands and recreational access, notably within Hamlin Beach State Park and the distinctive coastal landmark of Devils Nose. Small lakefront settlements such as Troutburg, Onteo Beach, and Sandy Harbour Beach line the coast, connected by the arterial Lake Ontario State Pkwy.

Moving inland, the landscape transitions into a network of creek drainages including Sandy Creek, Brush Creek, and Moorman Creek. This agricultural and residential interior is anchored by the central hub of Hamlin and the historic community of Clarkson to the south. Genealogists will find value in the placement of several local burying grounds, such as Morton Union Cem near the Orleans County line and Clarkson Union Cem, which offer spatial context for the area's established families.
