Pillar Point and the village of Sackets Harbor define the eastern shores of Lake Ontario in this detailed survey of the coastal landscape. This region of New York is characterized by a complex network of peninsulas and offshore islands, including Association Island and Gull Island, which guard the entrance to Henderson Bay. Local history and genealogy are anchored by several legacy sites, such as the Ingalls-Ingerson Cem and Stone Cem near Sherwin Creek. The topography reveals the maritime character of the area, from the residential clusters at Gilmore Shore to the navigational hazards of Lime Barrel Shoal. Inland, a grid of local roads like Middle Rd and N Shore Rd connects family farms and coastal homesteads that have shaped the Jefferson County shoreline for generations.
