1947 Map of Claverack

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

Claverack and Philmont anchor this mid-century portrait of Columbia County, where the landscape transitions from the broad valleys of Claverack Creek to the undulating terrain of Sugarloaf Hill and The Hill. The map captures a moment when rural life centered on dispersed school districts, including School No 12 and School No 7, and small milling centers like Red Mills and Glenco Mills. Industrial and transit corridors are clearly defined by the New York Central and the Albany and Boston lines, which navigate the creek valleys alongside Hollowville Creek and Agawamuck Creek. From the high point at Pinnacle to the wetlands of Texas Swamp and Pumpkin Hollow, the survey documents the intricate drainage patterns and local landmarks that defined these Hudson Valley townships before the acceleration of modern suburban growth.
