on a broad swell of land not commanded by adjacent hights, and a 

 fine spring had a basin of loose stones. There were large cemeteries 

 on the north and west with recent articles. The area was lo acres 

 and length 1050 feet. — Squier, p. 91-92, pi. 14, no. 2. The plan is 

 given in fig. 55. Doty seems to describe this as in Avon two miles 

 north of Livonia center and on the farm of John Caton and John 

 Clary, but that town is too far west for his location if this was in- 

 tended. Beads, stone axes and hammers are yet found. He calls 

 this the early Gannounata (Dyudoosot), which is commonly as- 

 signed to Ontario county. — Doty, p. y2 



8 Three miles eastward was a large work now obliterated which 

 is said to have been octangular. — Squier, p. 93 



9 There was a work of at least 16 acres on a commanding hill in 

 Livonia, three miles northeast of Livonia village on Mr Haddock's 

 farm. It was a long oval earthwork with four gates, one opening 

 toward a fine spring, and was one and one half miles northward of 

 no. 8. — Squier, p. 62, pi. 8, no. i. The plan is given in fig. 58. 



On James Haydock's farm, and the timber on it was quite small 

 in 1806. — Doty, p. 71 



ID On Fort hill, 30 rods northeast of Bosley's mills and by the 

 Avon road near the outlet of Conesus lake, was a line of banks. 

 The spot was covered with shrubs at the settlement by the whites 

 and European articles occur. — Doty, p. 73. Apparently the site of 

 1779 but occupied earlier. 



1 1 Conesus or Gahnyuhsas was a small Seneca village half a mile 

 south of the head of Conesus lake. Pouchot called it Onistade. — 

 Doty, p. 96 



12 "It is said that a mound containing a large number of human 

 bones occurs near the head of Hemlock lake in the township of 

 Springwater. At various places in the county large cemeteries are 

 found, but most, if not all of them, may with safety be referred to 

 the Senecas. Indeed many articles of European origin accompany 

 the skeletons." — Squier, p. 63. Southeast of Ihe lake two and one < 

 half miles. — Doty, p. 73 



13 Dyuhahgaih, an Oneida village which adhered to the English 

 in the revolution, was on the east bank of the Genesee a mile below 

 North's mills. — Doty, p. 97-98
