About this map

The Delaware River serves as the central artery and state boundary for this 2010 study of Wayne County, Pennsylvania, and its neighbor across the water in New York. The landscape is defined by the winding river valley and its numerous tributaries, including Calkins Creek, Beaverdam Creek, and Schoolhouse Creek. Settlements like Damascus, Milanville, and Cochecton sit along the riverbanks, marking long-standing points of transit and community.

Genealogists and local historians can find several burial grounds, including Overlook Cemetery and Hillside Cemetery near Damascus, and Saint Lucys Cemetery further south. The map reflects a mix of traditional crossroads like Stanton Corner and rural infrastructure such as Upper Tyler Hill Dam and Campis Airport. Notable water bodies such as Swago Pond, Barkley Lake, and Perry Pond dot the uplands, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Upper Delaware region.
