About this map

Ontario and Ontario Center serve as the focal points for this region of Wayne County, where a dense network of roads like Kenyon Rd and Plank Rd connects a series of historic crossroads and agricultural hamlets. The landscape is defined by its glacial drumlin topography, visible in numerous named elevations such as Mathewson Hill, Morse Hill, and Trummonds Hill. These rises are separated by a complex drainage system featuring Deer Creek, Bear Creek, and Fourmile Creek.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the distribution of family and community cemeteries, including Dickinson Cem, West Walworth Cem, and Baker Cem. The map documents the continued evolution of long-established settlements like Fruitland and Lincoln alongside the modern residential development of Gananda. From the Monroe County line at Union Hill eastward to Walworth, the map captures a landscape where traditional rural naming conventions persist amidst 21st-century growth.
