1922 Map of Andes

About this map

The East Branch Delaware River flows through the heart of this landscape, anchoring a valley where the lost hamlets of Pepacton, Shavertown, and Union Grove once thrived. This 1922 survey documents these communities before they were submerged by reservoir construction, detailing the intricate network of country schools that served the mountainsides, such as Tiffany Hollow School and Lower Dingle Hill School. The valley floors and hollows are dense with local history, from the New York Ontario and Western River rail corridor passing through Hamden and Delancey to the scattered farms connected by Farmers Hill Road. High ridges like Campbell Mountain and Perch Lake Mtn define the drainage basins of the Beaver Kill and Tremper Kill, revealing a 1920s topography where remote mountain gaps like Devils Backbone were still vital markers of the Catskill terrain.
