2010 Map of Port Leyden

About this map

Port Leyden and Lyons Falls serve as the primary anchors for this northern New York landscape, where the Black River and Moose River converge. The topography is defined by the steady descent of these waterways, which historically powered local industry at sites like Goulds Mill. Small hamlets and former post village sites such as Talcottville, Lyonsdale, and Shuetown are connected by a web of local routes including Penney Settlement Rd and Fowlerville Rd. Genealogy researchers will find several burial grounds of note, including Wildwood Cemetery, Calvary Cemetery, and the Leyden Hill Cemetery near Locust Grove. The map also details the winding paths of numerous tributaries like Beauty Creek, Fall Brook, and Sugar River, illustrating the well-watered character of the Tug Hill region foothills.
