2023 Map of Richmondville

About this map

Cobleskill Creek and West Creek define the drainage of this Schoharie County landscape, where the village of Richmondville serves as a primary hub for the surrounding rural valleys. The area is characterized by numerous family-named landmarks and historical burial grounds, including the Richmondville Rural Cem and the Richmondville Village Cem. Smaller clusters of settlement such as Seward, Hyndsville, and Lawyersville are linked by a network of winding roads like the Loonenburg Tpke and Janesville Ln. In the eastern portion of the map, the landscape rises toward Mount Shank, while the southern reaches are marked by the steep terrain of Beards Hollow and Brooker Hollow. The presence of several distinct cemeteries, such as the New Rhinebeck Cem and Strobeck Cem, provides a detailed record of local genealogy and nineteenth-century community centers that persist into the modern era.
