About this map

The West Branch Delaware River carves a deep valley through this 1920s landscape, serving as the primary corridor for the Erie R R and the growth of Deposit. This survey documents a critical period before later water management projects altered the river valley, showing the village of Cannonsville and Granton in their original riverside positions. The surrounding highlands are densely populated with small agrarian communities and institutional landmarks, including numerous rural schoolhouses such as the uniquely named Slow and Easy School, Steam Mill School, and Hungry Hollow School. The map captures the complex township borders of Afton, Bainbridge, and Tompkins, where the rugged terrain of Michigan Hill and Speedwell Mtn dictated settlement patterns. From the resort atmosphere near Oquaga Lake to the scattered farms of McClure Settlement, the sheet provides an detailed look at the Catskill foothills' social geography.
