1958 Map of Stony Point

About this map

Stony Point dominates this 1958 survey, extending into the eastern waters of Lake Ontario where the townships of Hounsfield and Henderson meet. The maritime character of the Jefferson County shoreline is clearly defined by several indentations including Gravely Bay, Boomer Cove, and Ray Bay. A prominent Lighthouse stands as a navigational landmark on the point's western edge, connected to the interior by a small network of rural routes such as Lighthouse Road and Military Road. This map reflects a mid-century coastal landscape largely defined by its natural topography and seasonal access, including the outlying Calf Island and the protected waters of Sawyer Bay. The detailed hydrography, compiled from earlier Lake Survey charts, provides a precise look at the underwater shelf and soundings surrounding Clark Point.
