About this map

Onondaga Creek carves a significant path through this landscape south of Syracuse, anchored by the historic locations of Onondaga Castle and Indian Village. The terrain is defined by dramatic landforms like Peppermill Gulf and Webb Hollow, alongside family-named elevations such as Lords Hill and Manns Hill. Agriculture remains a cornerstone of the local character, evidenced by the expansive grounds of Beak And Skiff Apple Farms, McLusky Orchards, and O'Neills Orchard.

Smaller hamlets and intersections such as Baileys Settlement, South Onondaga, and Cards Corners provide a network of local centers, while numerous burial grounds including Onondaga Valley Cemetery and Budlong Cemetery offer valuable data for genealogical research. The Onondaga Creek Flood Control Dam represents a modern layer of water management over the older natural drainage of the West Branch Onondaga Creek.
