2016 Map of Rose

About this map

Sodus Bay defines the northern reaches of this New York landscape, its irregular shoreline marked by prominent points such as Thornton Point and Nicholas Point. In the mid-2010s, the area reflects a mix of lakeside residential enclaves like Sunset View and Bonni Castle alongside established rural hamlets. The map is particularly dense with genealogical markers, including numerous burial grounds like York Settlement Cem and Espenschied Cem, which anchor the small crossroads communities. Moving south, the terrain transitions into the significant Huckleberry Swamp, where Black Brook and Mervin Brook drain through low-lying wetlands. Historical settlement patterns are evident in the placement of Wayne Center, Glenmark, and Alton, all connected by a grid of local routes like Ridge Rd and the Shaker Tract Rd, which hints at the region's earlier agricultural and communal history.
