About this map

The Erie Canal forms the southern boundary of this Orleans County landscape, passing through the hamlets of Hulberton and Hinsburg. This corridor, historically vital to the economic development of Western New York, remains a primary feature alongside several branches of Sandy Creek. Northward, the land slopes toward the shoreline of Lake Ontario, where the Lake Ontario State Pkwy connects coastal settlements like Lomond Shore.

Rural life is anchored by a network of local roads and several small settlements, including West Kendall and Murray. For researchers, the map identifies numerous family and community burial grounds such as Greenwood Cem, Beechwood Cem, and Hatch Cem, which are key to tracing local lineage. The presence of Maynard's Airport north of Kendall reflects the continued use of small-scale aviation facilities in this largely agricultural region between the canal and the Great Lakes.
