1957 Map of Jewell

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Oneida Lake dominates this mid-century landscape, serving as a focal point for the lakeside communities of Cleveland, Jewell, and Lakeport. The map captures a period when the shoreline was heavily utilized for recreation and transit, featuring a Seaplane Base near Gifford Point and a Boat Launching Site at Godfrey Point. Inland, the agricultural and rural character of Madison Co and Oneida Co is evident through family-named junctions like Gees Corner and Loomis Corners, alongside social centers like the Oneida Lake Ch and Lakeport Chapel. The Erie Canal cuts through the center of the lake, while the southern marshlands are drained by the Douglas Ditch and Canaseraga Creek. This survey reveals the fine-grained geography of the shore, from the hazards of Messenger Shoal to the small settlements at Long Crossing and Oneida Lake Beach West.
