About this map

The Beaver Kill and Willowemoc Creek converge in this early 1920s survey, defining the industrial and recreational landscape of northern Sullivan County. The New York Ontario and Western RR serves as the primary corridor for commerce, connecting the major hubs of Livingston Manor and Roscoe. The map highlights a diverse rural economy, where industrial sites like the Acid Plant and Creosote Plant operate alongside established settlements like Jeffersonville and Youngsville.

Genealogists will find a dense network of local landmarks, including the Dahlia Church and numerous one-room schoolhouses such as the Hardenburgh School and Fox Mountain School. The terrain is marked by high points like Rattle Hill and Walnut Mtn, while the southern reaches of the quadrangle feature dozens of named water bodies, from Swan Lake to the secluded Revonah Lake, reflecting the area's development as a destination for summer retreats and outdoor pursuits.
