About this map

Lake Ontario defines the northern reaches of this Orleans County landscape, where the Lake Ontario State Pkwy skirts the shoreline near Lomond Shore. Moving south, the terrain transitions from coastal plains to the agricultural and transport corridors that shaped the region's development. The historic Erie Canal cuts across the southern portion of the map, serving as a landmark for the settlements of Hulberton, Hinsburg, and Brockville. Infrastructure such as the Hulberton Road Bridge and Hindsburg Road Bridge provide clear points of reference for tracing early local navigation.

Genealogists will find a significant distribution of burial sites, including Beechwood Cem and Greenwood Cem near Kendall, as well as the Transit Cem and Hatch Cem further south. These sites, alongside landmarks like Maynard's Airport, reflect a long-standing community structure. The drainage patterns of Sandy Creek and its branches, including West Branch Sandy Creek, illustrate the natural irrigation that supported the farmsteads between West Kendall and Murray.
