1905 Map of Portage

USGS Topo · Published 1926

About this map

The Genesee River carves a dramatic path through the southeastern corner of this landscape, marked by a series of significant cataracts including Upper Falls, Middle Falls, and Lower Falls. This 1905 survey reveals Wyoming County as a critical rail corridor at the turn of the century, where the Erie Railroad and Buffalo Rochester and Pittsburg RR intersect near Silver Lake Junction. The industrial and social hub of Warsaw anchors the north, while the shores of Silver Lake host the Silver Lake Assembly, reflecting the era's Victorian-style seasonal gatherings and theological retreats.
