2019 Map of Verona

About this map

The Erie Canal remains a defining artery of this central New York landscape, paralleled by the N Country National Scenic Trail and the Heelpath Rd as it cuts through the village of New London. This corridor, historically vital to regional trade, is surrounded by numerous small hamlets and agricultural junctions including Seifert Corners, Churchville, and Verona Mills. To the north, the Rome Sand Plains present a distinct geological character, while the southern reaches are marked by the broad Verona Swamp and the drainage of Brandy Brook. Genealogists will find several burial grounds across the township, such as Greenway Cem, Joslyn Cem, and Lewis Cem, which anchor the local history of family-named settlements like Cagwin Corners and Blackmans Corners. The presence of Becks Grove Airport and Curtis Airport highlights the area's continued utility as a transportation hub north of Verona.
