About this map

Washingtonville serves as the central hub of this Orange County landscape, situated where the Moodna Creek and Cromline Creek drainage systems converge. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent rises including Woodcock Hill, Round Hill, and the northern reaches of Schunnemunk Mtn, which overlook a network of valley settlements such as Blooming Grove and South Blooming Grove. For genealogists and local historians, the sheet is exceptionally detailed in its documentation of burial grounds, preserving the locations of numerous family and religious sites like Sears Cem, Woodhull Cem, and Saint Marys Cem. The transportation corridors are well-defined, following the natural valleys and the path of the M & U RR. Small hamlets and residential clusters like Rock Tavern, Burnside, and Farmingdale are connected by a web of named local roads, reflecting the established rural and suburban character of this region west of the Hudson River.
