2016 Map of Wilson

About this map

The village of Wilson serves as the focal point of this Niagara County shoreline, where the waters of Lake Ontario meet a landscape shaped by glacial drainage. The map reveals a cluster of lakeside communities including Roosevelt Beach, Sunset Beach, and Coolidge Beach, which developed around the mouth of Twelvemile Creek. A distinct local history is visible in the layout of Tuscarora Bay and its sheltered Tuscarora Island, while the Roosevelt Beach Bridge provides a vital link across the inlet. Further inland, the agricultural character of the region is evident near the settlement of Elberta and along rural corridors like Maple Rd. Researchers can trace local genealogy through the Greenwood Cem and identify historical land use near Hollands International Field and the various branches of the creek system, including Hopkins Cr and the E Br Twelvemile Cr.
