About this map

Grahamsville and Woodbourne anchor this Sullivan County landscape, where the southern Catskills terrain is defined by the sharp descent of the Neversink River and the eastern reach of the Rondout Reservoir. The settlement pattern follows the valley floors, with hamlets like Neversink, Curry, and Unionville connected by roads such as Claryville Rd and Bonnel Rd. Higher elevations are marked by landmarks like Thunder Hill and South Hill, while the southern reaches feature the complex of the Woodbourne Correctional Institute.

Water plays a central role in the geography of the area, from the larger reservoir to smaller bodies like Lake Paradise, Beaverdam Pond, and South Wind Lake. Local genealogists can locate the Rural Cemetery near Grahamsville, and researchers tracing family movements can follow the network of historic routes including Old Brodhead Rd and Ulster Heights Rd that crisscross the many tributaries of Chestnut Creek and Beer Kill.
