About this map

Roeliff Jansen Kill winds through the southern landscape of this 1945 survey, marking a corridor of settlement and early industrial activity between Columbia and Dutchess counties. The geography is defined by a series of prominent peaks and water bodies, including Lake Taghkanic in the north and the jagged elevations of Green Hill and Signal Rock. Small hamlets and crossroads like Ancram, Gallatinville, and Jackson Corners are connected by a network of rural roads that follow the natural contours of the hills. The inclusion of sites such as Spaulding Furnace and Vedder Ch provides specific touchpoints for researchers tracing the religious and economic foundations of these communities. From the rural schoolhouses like Suydam Sch to the quiet waters of Pond Lily Pond, the map records a mid-century Hudson Valley landscape before modern development altered the character of its small townships.
