1955 Map of Lysander

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

The Seneca River winds through this Central New York landscape, defining the border between the townships of Lysander and Van Buren. In the mid-1950s, the area remained largely rural, characterized by small crossroads settlements like Plainville and Little Utica. The historic Erie Canal cuts across the southeastern corner near Maloney Island, serving as a legacy of the region's transport history alongside the modern river channel. North of the river, the terrain is marked by numerous drumlins—distinctive elongated hills—that influence the winding path of local roads such as Lamson Road and Avery Road. Genealogists will find several burial sites including Adams Cem and Kingdom Cem, the latter situated near the uniquely named settlement of The Kingdom. To the west, the map captures the northern tip of Cross Lake, where the boundary of Cayuga County meets Onondaga County.
