THE ARCHEOLOGICAL HISTORY OF NEW YORK 615 



plowed up 200 feet east of these. Some skeletons were also found 

 on the line of the Erie Railroad 200 feet north of the town line. 



57 Village site with stone implements occurs on the Thomas 

 farm, \y 2 miles southwest of East Rush. This is south of Honeoye 

 creek and near the mouth of Stony brook. 



58 Burial site midway between Honeoye Falls and West Rush, 

 and about 2 miles directly south of Rush along the railroad track. 

 Partly* explored by Joseph Mattern. 



59 Burial site north of West Rush village just south of the 

 Lehigh Valley Railroad tracks and on both sides of the road. Many 

 iron tomahawks and war arrowheads have been found in a slight 

 gully three-fourths of a mile northwest of West Rush, and twelve 

 skeletons were exhumed in digging a cellar about the same distance 

 north of that village. Across the road others were found. These 

 were on the land of Peter Martin and J. B. Hamilton. 



60 Village site reported by Harris (45). A trail ran to a salt 

 spring where the Indians camped and made salt. 



6 1 Village site last occupied by the Seneca in Webster at the foot 

 of a hill at the angle of the roads at the east side of Irondequoit 

 bay and near the lake. Skeletons have been found here. They are 

 described as being buried in a circle like the spokes of a wheel. 

 Crude stone relics were found. 



62 Mounds in Penfield, mentioned by Harris, on a high bluff 

 east of the mouth of Irondequoit river. Now obliterated. 



63 Village site on the Stull farm on the east side of the Genesee, 

 just south of the Honeoye at its confluence. The region here shows 

 several occupations by similar and different stocks and at widely 

 different periods. The Stull farm has yielded both early and recent 

 Iroquoian objects, some fine clay pipes, and also pre-Iroquoian 

 slate objects. The burials are found between the Stull house and the 

 railroad. A few burials also have been discovered back of the 

 house on the hillside slope to the river. 



64 Village on the Morris farm yielding stone implements of good 

 quality. This site is on a hill overlooking the river on the east. 



65 Village site in East Rush cemetery, noted by Harris (p. 60). 

 Stone implements have been found. 



66 Small village site on north side of the Honeoye at West Rush. 

 Many flint blades and a few celts have been found. 



67-68 Two inclosures were in Rush near the village of West Rush 

 and on the banks of Honeoye creek, which defended one of these 

 on one side. The other was on higher ground 100 rods southward. 

 Each was of 4 acres and had caches and broken pottery (Squier, p. 

 60). These are probably on lot 51.
