2013 Map of Wolcott

About this map

Wolcott serves as the primary hub of this northern Wayne County landscape, where the confluence of Wolcott Cr and local commerce defines the settlement pattern. The village is surrounded by several historical hamlets and clusters, including Hickory Square, Rice Mill, and Furnace Village, each suggesting the agricultural and early industrial roots of the region. Local genealogy is well-represented through numerous burial grounds such as Glen Side Cem and Huron Evergreen Cem, which anchor the rural roads connecting the community. To the south, the terrain shifts toward Butler Center and South Butler, where the landscape is marked by the Millpond and expansive drainage systems of Black Cr and Butler Cr. This survey documents a resilient rural structure where legacy farms like the Batz Tree Farm continue to operate alongside established residential centers, maintaining the historic road network of the Lake Ontario lowlands.
