1897 Map of Ridgeway

About this map

Lake Ontario defines the northern edge of this 1896 survey, where the Thirtymile Pt. L.H. stands as a sentinel over the shoreline. The interior landscape is a structured grid of agricultural townships like Yates and Carlton, deeply etched by the meandering courses of Oak Orchard Creek and Johnson Creek. These waterways, particularly near Waterport and Johnson, dictated the early placement of mills and small hubs long before the modern highway system reorganized the region.
