1943 Map of Delhi

About this map

The West Branch Delaware River and the Little Delaware River converge at the village of Delhi, which served as a regional hub for education and healthcare in the mid-1940s. The landscape is marked by prominent institutions such as the State Agricultural and Technical Institute and Delaware Academy and Central Sch, alongside the County Sanatorium located south of the main settlement. Transportation networks are deeply etched into the topography, featuring the route of the New York Ontario and Western railroad and historical thoroughfares like the Catskill Turnpike and Old Catskill Turnpike. To the north, the smaller settlement of Meridale sits along Ouleout Creek, while numerous numbered schoolhouses and cemeteries like Woodland Cem and Old Scotch Cem dot the hills and valleys of Meredith and Delhi townships.
