About this map

Harpersfield and Stamford anchor this detailed landscape in the Catskill region, where the West Branch Delaware River begins its course. The map reveals a cluster of highland settlements and agricultural hamlets, including North Harpersfield, West Harpersfield, and North Kortright. For genealogists, the survey identifies several historic burying grounds such as North Harpersfield Cem, Stevens Cem, and the Harpersfield Center Cem.

The terrain is defined by prominent peaks and hollows, from Titus Hill in the north to Mt Bob in the south. Notable water bodies like Odell Lake and the Rexmere Lakes are situated among these elevations, while a network of rural roads connects the many family-named landmarks and peaks such as McMurdy Hill and Jaclyn Hill. The presence of the Schoharie and Delaware County boundary line provides a clear marker for administrative and historical research in this upstate New York corridor.
