1953 Map of Rose

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Sodus Bay and the shoreline of Lake Ontario dominate the northern landscape of this Wayne County survey, revealing a region defined by its complex drainage and agricultural settlement. Numerous points such as Nicholas Pt, Willigs Pt, and Grassy Pt reach into the bay, while the southern terrain is marked by the expansive Huckleberry Swamp and the headwaters of Sodus Creek. Small village centers and crossroads like North Rose, South Sodus, and Wayne Center are connected by a dense network of early thoroughfares, including Champlin Road and Lime Kiln Rd. The map documents a period of transition, with updates showing a Landing Strip near Glenmark and evolving land use patterns around Lummisville and Resort, providing a detailed look at the rural character of the Ontario lakefront before later modern development altered the local geography.
