About this map

Rensselaerville anchors the southeast corner of this upstate New York landscape, situated where Tenmile Cr and Rensselaerville Falls meet. The area is defined by a network of upland ridges and narrow hollows, including West Mountain, North Hill, and East Hill. Settlement patterns follow the winding paths of rural roads like Bradt Hollow Rd and Canaday Hill Rd, connecting small clusters such as Zucks Corners and Shoefelt Corners.

Water features are abundant throughout the hills, from the larger Myosotis Lake and Crystal Lake to smaller reaches like White Birch Pond and Triangle Lake. For genealogists, the map identifies several significant local landmarks including the Huntersland Cem, the Gifford Hollow Burying Ground, and the Crystal Lake Cem. The drainage of Little Schoharie Cr and Switz Kill underscores the transition from high summits like Cannady Hill toward the valley floors.
