About this map

Lake Ontario forms the northern boundary of this coastal agricultural region, where the shoreline is punctuated by Thirtymile Pt and its accompanying Lighthouse. The interior landscape is defined by a network of drainage creeks, including Johnson Creek and Oak Orchard Creek, which flow through a patchwork of marshlands and orchards toward the lake. The village of Lyndonville serves as a primary hub, situated along the New York Central rail line that traverses the center of the sheet.

Rural life in the mid-20th century is evidenced by the distribution of localized landmarks such as School No 10 and School No 13. The mapping also highlights long-standing community sites like St Patricks Cem and Somerset Cem. Transportation follows a clear grid of established routes like the Roosevelt Highway and Lake Road, connecting smaller settlements like Jeddo and North Ridgeway to the broader regional economy.
