About this map

Conesus Lake dominates this mid-century landscape, its shoreline dotted with recreational and residential points such as Pebble Beach, Sunny Shores, and Sacketts Harbor. The eastern shore transitions into the steep terrain of Henderson Hill and Turkey Hill, carved by numerous drainages like Denshore Gully and South Gully. This topography shaped the local development, concentrating settlements like Lakeville at the northern outlet where Conesus Creek begins its course.

Transportation networks of the early 1950s are clearly defined, featuring the Erie RR and Lehigh Valley RR corridor passing through Livonia and South Lima. Local genealogy is well-served by numerous burial grounds including Mt Pleasant Cem, Oak Ridge Cem, and Alger Cem. Cultural landmarks like the Atwater Memorial Lib and St Judes Chapel anchor the established village centers of Livonia Center and Livonia Sta.
