About this map

Dryden and the surrounding township appear at a mid-century peak of rural development, characterized by a complex network of upland roads and fertile valleys. The Lehigh Valley Railroad corridor provides a central industrial artery, passing through Willow Glen and skimming the edge of Dryden Lake. To the south, the village of Slaterville Springs anchors the Sixmile Creek valley, where the historic Catskill Turnpike follows the water's path toward West Slaterville. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations such as Yellow Barn Hill and Beam Hill, which dictate the winding paths of rural routes like Irish Settlement Road. For genealogists, the map identifies several distinct burial grounds, including the Dutch Reformed Cem and Mulks Cem, providing valuable location data for family history research in this part of Tompkins County.
