1956 Map of Mexico

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Little Salmon River meanders through the heart of this Central New York landscape, defining the rural character of the villages of Mexico and Parish. This mid-century survey reveals a patchwork of small agricultural settlements and crossroads like Maple View, Deweys Corners, and Graftons Square, connected by a dense network of family-named roads such as Shumaker Road and Tillipaugh Road. The presence of several distinct burial grounds, including the Quaker Cem and French Cem, speaks to the diverse early pioneer roots of Oswego County. Industrial history is etched into the terrain at Red Mill and Grays Millpond, where local waterways were harnessed for power. Further south, the expansive Lot Ten Swamp dominates the corner of Palermo, while the Conrail line provides a clear transit corridor through the eastern half of the quadrangle, linking the dairy and timber country to broader markets.
