About this map

Thirtymile Point anchors the northern shoreline of this Orleans County landscape, where the waters of Lake Ontario meet a coastal plain defined by agricultural drainage and early crossroads settlements. The interior is characterized by the branching paths of Johnson Creek and Marsh Creek, which historically supported the milling and farming economies of communities like Millers and Yates Center. These waterways, along with Jeddo Creek, create a distinct drainage pattern that has influenced the placement of roads and homesteads for generations.

Local history and genealogy are deeply embedded in the land, evidenced by numerous burial grounds such as Saint Patrick's Cem and North Ridgeway Cem. The village of Lyndonville serves as a primary hub, while the presence of the Tiger Paw Aerodrome reflects modern land use alongside the traditional rural layout. The map clearly delineates the County Line between Niagara and Orleans, showing how these political boundaries intersect with the natural flow of Oak Orchard Creek and the long-established transit corridor of Ridge Rd.
