About this map

Honeoye Lake and Hemlock Lake anchor this study of the Finger Lakes region's northern reaches, where the landscape is defined by deep glacial valleys and steep ravines. Between these bodies of water, the terrain is incised by Whetstone Brook and the sharp drops of Affolter Gully and Bray Gully, which drain the elevated ridges. The settlement pattern remains largely agricultural and low-density, centered on small hamlets such as Denison Corner, Richmond Center, and Honeoye.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of burial sites, including the Dennison Corners Cem and Canadice Hollow Cem, which mark the historical footprint of early rural communities. The map also documents local infrastructure like the Old Fort Farm Airport and Hemlock Lake Park. Throughout the area, the transition from water to upland is traced by Honeoye Creek and the Hemlock Outlet, showing the enduring drainage patterns that shaped the growth of Glenville and Idaho.
