1943 Map of Breakabeen

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Schoharie Creek carves a deep path through the Schoharie Valley, where the 1943 landscape is defined by tight clusters of upland farming and riverside settlements. The survey reveals a network of rural schoolhouses, such as School No 9 near Patria and School No 11 near Housons Corners, marking the community centers of the mid-century era. Prominent topographic features like Towpath Mountain and the dramatic Walhalla Rocks loom over the valley floor, while Boucks Falls sits at the convergence of mountain drainages. The map records several distinct hamlets including West Fulton and Breakabeen, showing the distribution of homesteads and local infrastructure before modern development patterns. This record of the Catskill foothills transition zone preserves the names of countless hollows and hills, including Cole Hollow and Fulton Hill, reflecting the local genealogy of Schoharie County.
