24 On the south side in Baldwinsville a village and cemetery were 

 a little southeast of the village cemetery. Relics are found with the 

 skeletons. Another village was mostly on the east side of Syracuse 

 street. A few lodges and graves were on the west side. All these 

 were on land sloping to Crooked brook. A few rods southeast was 

 a cemetery in sand loam out of which the writer saw twenty skele- 

 tons taken at one time. No special order was observed in burial but 

 the knees were generally drawn up. Under almost every head was a 

 small pebble, the loam being free of stones. In laying pipe a few 

 rods southeast of the bridge in 1895 an extended but small skeleton 

 was found between two layers of cobblestones. Xo articles were in 

 the grave. 



25 There was a circular stockade on L. Tallmage's farm, lot 13, 

 and i^ miles south of Baldwinsville, south of a small stream and 

 west of the road to \\ arner. A plan is given in figure 75. It 

 occupied a low broad hill, commanded by a higher one across the 

 stream. It had a gate on the north side, and the diameter was about 

 300 feet. The post holes were a step apart. 



26 A small hamlet was on Mrs C. Lamerson's farm, lot 41. Ar- 

 rowheads, etc., are found. 



27 On lot 17 there are lodge sites near the river. 



28 There are also camps on the farms of ]\Iessrs Spore and 

 Pelton on lot 3 near the river. 



29 Others- occur on H. B. Odell's farm on lot 2, and all along the 

 valley of Dead creek implements are found. 



30 There are lodges near the river on Lester's and Tallmage's 

 farms, lot 14. 



31 Two large stone heaps covering human bones in E. L. Tall- 

 mage's woods, lot 21. 



32 A hamlet on the Mason farm, lot 68, Spafford, was about a 

 mile east of Five Mile point on Skaneateles lake. The relics there 

 and nearby are early. 



33 A few years since some graves were opened on lot 'jz, Otisco, 

 which contained several long stone tubes. This was near Amber 

 east of Otisco lake, and several caches of flint i)ieces have been 

 found in that vicinity. Arrowheads occur all along Nine Mile creek 

 to Onondaga lake. 



34 A little north of (Onondaga Hill village there was a large 

 cemetery with hundreds of graves (Clark. 2:136). 



35 Half a mile south of Onondaga Valley village, on Webster's 

 mile square and on the first terrace west of (Onondaga creek, was the 

 stockade built for the Onondagas by Sir William Johnson in 1756.
