2013 Map of Freehold

About this map

East Durham and Freehold anchor the northern landscape of this Greene County survey, where the winding course of Catskill Cr and Basic Cr define the local drainage patterns. The map documents a cluster of settlements including Sunside, South Durham, and Acra, which sit along the transition from the rolling valley floor to the high peaks of the Catskill Mountains. Significant elevation changes are marked by prominent summits like Blackhead, Black Dome, and Acra Point, while the southeastern corner descends toward the community of Purling along the Shingle Kill. Genealogists and local historians will find value in the precise location of family and community burial grounds, such as Snyder Cem, Taylor Cem, and the Cairo Village Cem. The presence of the Freehold Airport and the Armstrongs Elk Farm indicates a diverse mix of modern recreation, transportation, and agricultural land use in this part of upstate New York.
