It was nearly half circular with a natural bank on the fourth 

 side. There was a covered way to the water. — Yates, p. 15-16. 

 Squier also quotes this and adds that the usual relics were found. 

 Half a mile north of this on higher land Mr Kirkland found a 

 smaller and stronger work. Both had Allen's creek on one side. 

 Mr Squier said that nothing indicated these spots " except the 

 greater abundance of stones on the line of the former embank- 

 ments." — Squier, p. 59-60 



6 Frank Kingsbury three miles east of Mumford plowed up 

 bones in 1898 and then dug up five well preserved skeletons. 



7 At the upper Charlotte ferry and near by have been found 

 arrowheads and stone pestles, bullets, etc. — Harris, p. 43 



8 A break in the clifif on the east bank of the Genesee, half a 

 mile below the lower fall, makes a natural landing place which was 

 a great camping ground. There were two mounds not over 100 

 feet from the edge of the blufif, which have been levelled, but skele- 

 tons and relics have been found. This is Brewer's landing, half 

 a mile north of Hanford's which is on the other shore. — Harris, 

 p. 23-26

 found this. "An ancient fortification stood near the ford of a brook 

 which rises in the little vale southeast of Rattlesnake point. It 

 was the ruins of this fort for which Mr Squier searched in vain in 

 1848." — Harris, p. 42 



ID Traces of a town and cemetery were found on Daniel Leake's 

 farm on the east side below Brewer's landing. — Squier, p. 42 



II Most of those in Rochester are grouped under this number. 

 There was an old fort in front of Mr Hooker's house near Hooker's 

 cemetery and North avenue. A large settlement was on the sand 

 knolls half a mile west of the Culver farm and near North avenue. 

 Another large town was on the top of the hill over which Lake ave- 

 nue passes, and all the slope thence 'to the river and north to Han- 

 ford's landing was used for camps. Work shops for flint were 

 numerous toward the river end of Frauenberger avenue. There 

 were camps at the Indian spring, at the corner of Spring street 

 and Spring alley, and all the way thence to Hanford's. Near Elm-
