About this map

Lake Ontario defines the northern reaches of this Wayne County landscape, where the shoreline is punctuated by geographic landmarks like Bootleggers Point and Sprong Bluff. Moving inland, the terrain is shaped by the drainage of Salmon Creek and Sill Creek, which flow toward Maxwell Bay near the village of Sodus Point. The map captures a largely agricultural and rural residential character, evidenced by the extensive road network including N Centenary Rd and Maple Ave.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the documentation of early burial grounds such as Centenary Cem, Swales Cem, and Bushnell Cem. These sites, along with family-named features like Negro Hill and the established Sodus Fruit Farm, provide a clear picture of the land-use patterns and community settlements that have persisted in this lakeside region into the early twenty-first century.
