1952 Map of Sodus

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

The glacial topography of Wayne County is prominently displayed here, defined by the distinct drumlin formations that rise between Sodus and the southern reaches of Arcadia. These elongated ridges, such as Governor Hill and Brantling Hill, dictate the winding paths of rural roads like Middle Road and Zurich Road. In this post-war period, the region's agricultural character is balanced by the industrial presence of the New York Central and Pennsylvania railroads, which intersect at Wallington. Local life is anchored by a network of rural schoolhouses, including School No 5 and School No 16, and small settlements like Sodus Center and Zurich. The drainage of the landscape follows the low ground between drumlins, forming Salmon Creek and Maxwell Creek, while localized wetlands like Mets Pond and Wildlife Marsh Pond populate the depressions.
