2019 Map of Andes

About this map

Andes serves as the primary hub in this portion of Delaware County, situated at the confluence of several prominent valleys. The settlement is flanked by numerous family and community burial grounds, including the Andes Rural Cemetery and the Andes Village Cemetery, alongside smaller sites like the Waterbury Cemetery and Herr Cemetery. This network of cemeteries provides significant touchpoints for genealogical research in an area defined by its complex drainage patterns. The Tremper Kill and Fiddle Brook feed into the regional waterway system, while the northern reaches are dominated by the waters of Lake Delaware and the Little Delaware River. The map illustrates a landscape of narrow hollows and high ridges, where routes like State Road Hollow and Gladstone Hollow dictate the placement of rural residences. To the south, the Bush Kill flows toward the Arena Reservoir, marking the transition into more mountainous terrain near Grays Mountain.
