History & Context

On the southern shore of Lake Ontario in Cayuga County Tucked along the southern shore of Lake Ontario is one the best kept secrets in New York state. Little Sodus Bay was first named "Date-Kea-shote" and "Little Seadose" by the Cayuga and Seneca Indians in the mid 1600's. The early French traders found "Chroutons" a useful landing place to trade with the Cayugas. By 1872 with the completion of the Southern Central Railroad, the harbor shipping provided transit for wood products, stoves, apples and potatoes. Ice was also a industry developed to cool the milk shipped by rail. The ice handlers became known as experts in the field. With all this going on around the bay, the village prospered. Schools were organized; churches built and new ideas were excepted. Anti-slavery, women's' suffrage and temperance societies were organized.
