April 14, 2022 Rochester Academy of Science Annual Meeting lecture by Dr. John O'Shea on "Ice, Water, and Ancient Hunters" in which he describes his team's underwater archaeological investigations of paleo-Indian hunter-gatherer communities on the Alpena-Amberley Ridge, a high ridge of limestone and dolomite bedrock now over 100 meters below the surface of Lake Huron.

The library of the Academy is deposited and maintained in the University of Rochester Library.   The following link will take you there.

In volume 20 of the Proceedings is an article by Richard A. Young on the geology of the Genesee Valley Glacial and Postglacial History.   Interested readers might enjoy another article co-authored by Richard A.
