2010 Map of Cossayuna

About this map

Cossayuna Lake and its prominent Big Island serve as a central anchor for this part of Washington County, surrounded by a cluster of agricultural hamlets and highland terrain. The settlement pattern is defined by historic centers such as Argyle, South Argyle, and East Greenwich, which are connected by a network of rural roads bearing long-standing local names. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the winding course of the Batten Kill, where Fitch Point marks a distinct bend in the river. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of burial grounds across the landscape, including Prospect Hill Cemetery near Argyle and the South Argyle Cemetery. The topography transitions from the wetland flats of The Old Fly and Peat Swamp to the elevations of Barkley Mountain and Murdock Mountain, reflecting the varied geography of the upper Hudson Valley region.
