About this map

Henderson Harbor and the village of Henderson serve as the focal points for this coastal reach of Jefferson County, where the transition from agricultural uplands to the Lake Ontario shoreline defines the local geography. The map reveals a high density of ancestral burial grounds, including the North Cem near Stony Point and the inland Stowles Cem, offering valuable data for genealogical research.

Water management and natural drainage are evident through features like the Graham Creek Canal and the meandering paths of Stony Creek and Sandy Creek. Small settlements such as Rural Hill and Woodville are connected by a network of established routes like Military Rd and Bishop Street Rd, illustrating the persistent settlement patterns in this part of New York. From the recreational areas of Jefferson Park to the secluded Crystal Lake, the landscape maintains a balance between lakeside development and rural preservation.
