About this map

Bloomville serves as a focal point along the West Branch Delaware River in this Delaware County landscape, where the valley floor transitions into high ridges. The settlement pattern is defined by traditional hill-and-valley agriculture, with family-named landmarks like Boomhower Hill and Betts Hill overlooking a network of narrow roads. Significant for genealogists, the map identifies three distinct burial grounds: Riverside Cemetery near the village core, Wetmore Cemetery to the east, and Benedict Cemetery situated along Elk Creek to the northwest.

Further south, the landscape is anchored by Bovina Center near the Little Delaware River, surrounded by the significant elevations of Bramley Mountain and Bovina Mountain. Numerous watercourses, including Kidd Brook, Kiff Brook, and Brush Brook, illustrate the intricate drainage system feeding into the Delaware River branches. The local road network, such as Glen Burnie Rd and Tom Hoag Rd, follows the contours of the terrain, connecting the outlying settlement of Glen Burnie to the valley centers.
