Summary:
This series of maps (commonly referred to as "Schillner Maps") depict land along the Erie, Champlain, and Oswego canals acquired
by the state. Each map provides detailed information on state owned property, and shows the locations of the 1825 canal alignment
and related structures such as locks, slips, dams, bridges, and roads which have since been obliterated. In addition they
show municipal boundaries, bodies of water, property lines, names of owners, streets, railroad lines, businesses, and civic
landmarks.
