2010 Map of Freehold

About this map

Catskill Creek and its many tributaries, such as Basic Creek and Platte Kill, carve through this section of Greene County, defining the drainage patterns south toward the Blackhead Mountains. The landscape in 2010 shows a high density of ancestral sites for researchers, including the Cairo Village Cemetery and Snyder Cemetery, which sit alongside historic crossroads settlements like Freehold, Acra, and Sunside. The map captures a mix of traditional valley agriculture and high-relief terrain, with peaks like Black Dome and Acra Point rising above the creek beds. Human activity is evidenced by small aviation infrastructure at Freehold Airport and specialized rural enterprises such as Armstrongs Elk Farm. The layout of the road network, including the Old S Durham Hwy, reflects the early settlement corridors that followed the water gaps into the higher elevations.
