About this map

Charlotte Valley defines the northern reaches of this Delaware County landscape, where the Charlotte Creek winds past established hamlets like Davenport and Fergusonville. The terrain is marked by significant elevation changes, rising from the valley floor toward Quaker Hill and McKee Hill. For genealogists, the map is particularly dense with burial sites, ranging from the Gilchrist United Presbyterian Cem in the east to the Blakely Cem near West Kortright.

A network of small settlements and named corners, such as Butts Corner, Hoseaville, and Sturges Corner, suggests a long-standing rural community structure tied to local crossroads. To the south, Kortright Center and Kortright Station anchor the upland territory near the headwaters of Kortright Cr and Wright Brook. This modern topographic perspective captures the enduring placement of family cemeteries and traditional mountain roads amidst the high ridges and secluded ponds like Sexsmith Lake.
