1955 Map of Point Rock

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The East Branch Fish Creek and its many tributaries, including Beaver Meadow Brook and Rock Creek, carve a detailed drainage pattern through this corner of New York. The landscape is defined by the transition from the mid-century State Reforestation Area to small pockets of industry and settlement. Industrial history is evident in the string of small mills along these waterways, such as Swancott Mill, Freeman Mill, Parson Mill, and Fey Mill, which speak to the local timber and water-power economy of the era. Cultural enclaves like the Prussian Settlement and rural church sites like St Anns Ch anchor the local geography. Small family-named hills and clearings, including Finn Hill and Bowman Hill, rise above the creek valleys, while numerous small schools like School No 8 and School No 11 represent the dispersed educational infrastructure of the mid-1950s.
