Description

Weedsport, N.Y. 1885. Published, drawn & copyrighted by L. R. Burleigh. C.H. Vogt & Son, lith.

This bird's-eye view map of Weedsport, New York was published by Lucien R. Burleigh in 1885. Weedsport is a village in Cayuga County that emerged from the Central New York Military Tract. The tract of nearly two million acres was set aside to compensate New York State's American Revolutionary War participants. Weedsport was named after local merchants Elihu and Edward Weed who helped establish the village. Weedsport was incorporated in 1831. The Erie Canal maintained a major port in Weedsport as well as a vast basin for turning around barges. Weedsport Mineral Spring was a fashionable destination in the late 1800's with its promises of healthy outcomes.

This panoramic map from 1885 shows buildings, railroad routes, Erie Canal and clearly labeled streets.
