2010 Map of Hancock

About this map

The confluence of the West Branch Delaware River and the main stem of the Delaware River anchors this landscape, where the village of Hancock serves as a central hub for the surrounding New York and Pennsylvania borderlands. In the early 21st century, the terrain is defined by its water and high ground, from the steep ascent of Point Mountain to the remote waters of Starlight Lake and Hiawatha Lake. Long-established burial grounds like Riverview Cemetery and Kingsbury Hill Cemetery offer genealogical touchpoints for local families, while the Initial Monument near the river indicates the historically significant boundary line. Small settlements such as Winterdale, Cadosia, and Stockport are connected by a network of winding roads like Shehawken Rd and Winterdale Rd, reflecting a landscape of seasonal camps, campgrounds, and rural residences scattered among the hills and hollows.
