2023 Map of Rose

About this map

Sodus Bay and its intricate shoreline dominate the northern reaches of this Wayne County landscape, where points like Willigs Point and Grassy Point extend into the water. This modern survey illustrates a deeply rooted rural layout characterized by dispersed hamlets and a significant number of family and community burial grounds, including the York Settlement Cem and Alton Cem. The interior terrain is defined by the extensive Huckleberry Swamp, which occupies a large portion of the central lowlands between Wayne Center and the village of Rose. This wetland system feeds several local watercourses, such as Black Brook and Sodus Creek, which wind through a mosaic of agricultural plots and small settlements like York and Glenmark. The road network follows the long-established surveyor lines of western New York, connecting the northern shore at Sunset View to the crossroads at South Sodus.
