occupations. Early camps in which gorgets and other slate articles 

 have been found are situated along a small creek emptying into the 

 old bed of the Genesee west of the Erie Railroad. 



18 Village site near the river bridge in Avon. Burials removed 

 several years ago by Tony Biser. Relics scattered and lost so far as 

 obtaining any information of them is concerned. 



Surface findings consist of stone age implements except on one 

 site where a few glass beads have been found on a sand knoll where 

 the burials were removed. Some very fine worked flint arrows are 

 to be taken from the surface after plowing has been done each year. 

 Celts are abundant compared with other sites, many of which have 

 the three beveled sides. 



A refuse heap was located in 1912 by R. Downing in or a little to 

 the east of his front dooryard while digging a post hole. It pro- 

 duced animal bones, some glass beads and small pieces of copper, 

 not extensively worked. A small camp site to the southeast yielding 

 a few arrow points, nearer the village of Avon and nearly opposite 

 the late residence of Hugh Tighe. (Follett.) 



19 Village is scattered up and down the banks of the river for 

 about 2 miles. " No pottery or pipes have been found to my knowl- 

 edge." 



20 Swamp and muck land where several arrow points have been 

 found in cultivating; could not have been occupied as a camp or 

 village, and was without question a pond of water in early days. 

 This is east of East Avon by i l / 2 miles, north of the road. 



21 Camp site, flint arrow points in very limited quantities on a 

 hill, 1^2 miles south of the former site. 



22 Small camp site on the east banks of the Genesee river due 

 west of Ashantes at what is known at Avon as the " high banks," on 

 farm of John Curry or Wadsworth farm. No burials or refuse, and 

 no evidence of much occupation. 



Mr Follett thinks there is a village site in the woods to the nortl 

 which will be revealed some time in the future when cleared of tii 

 ber and plowed, and that the designated camp site is the south edj 

 of such village. 



23 Camp sites in York, on lots 9 and 16 on the salt company's 

 property, north of Greigsville. There are about 2 acres in this tract. 



24 Village sites on lots 38, 41 and 48 in York on the Wadsworth 

 property. This is near Piffard and is the site of Ohagi occupied by 

 Tuscaroras at the time of the Sullivan raid. There are earlier sites 

 in the same locality, especially south of the small creek and east of
