2019 Map of Middleburgh

About this map

Schoharie Creek carves a deep valley through this Schoharie County landscape, defining the character of Middleburgh and West Middleburgh. The valley floor is framed by dramatic elevation changes at The Cliff, The Gorge, and the distinctive Vromans Nose, while the southern reaches transition into the wetlands of The Vlaie. This 2019 survey documents the enduring rural settlement patterns of the Catskill foothills, where small hamlets like Huntersland and Franklinton are connected by narrow winding roads such as Gates Hill Rd W and Huntersland Rd. Genealogy interest is high here, with numerous small family and community burial grounds scattered across the heights, including Cotton Hill Cem and the Huntersland School Cem. The map provides a clear record of the modern road network superimposed over the historic upland topography of Armlin Hill and Dutton Ridge.
