About this map

Oatka Creek carves a path through the northwest corner of this Genesee County landscape, serving as a focal point for the village of Le Roy. This 1950s era survey reveals a region defined by its dense rail network and limestone geography. Four major rail lines, including the Baltimore and Ohio RR and the New York Central RR, intersect the terrain, illustrating the importance of industrial transport to the local economy.

Genealogists can find numerous burial sites across the township, from the large Machpelah Cem near the village center to the smaller Van Allen Cem set back from Asbury Road. The landscape transitions from the residential streets of Caledonia and Limerock to the agricultural expanses of Pavilion and York. Notable landmarks such as the Le Roy Res and the Le Roy Country Club provide clear reference points for those tracing historical property boundaries or community development.
