About this map

Tonawanda Indian Reservation occupies the southwestern quadrant of this 1890s landscape, where the waters of Tonawanda Creek and Murder Creek wind through the borderlands of Niagara, Erie, and Genesee Counties. To the north, the industrial and transport corridor of the Erie Canal serves as the primary artery for commerce, linking settlements like Medina, Middleport, and Knowlesville. The influence of the New York Central and Hudson River railroad is evident, paralleling the canal and supporting the growth of these transit-oriented villages.
