History
-
The Charlotte-Genesee Lighthouse was built in 1822 but sat idle for a century until the Charlotte-Genesee Lighthouse Museum Historical Society restored it in 1984.
-
Charlotte was annexed by Rochester in 1916. Prior to that, it had been a village located within the Town of Greece.
-
Charlotte was Rochester's major summer resort early in the 20th Century, and Ontario Beach actually enjoyed the label of "Coney Island of the West."
