About this map

The East Branch Delaware River carves a central path through this portion of Delaware County, defining the valley where the village of Roxbury is situated. The landscape is characterized by high ridges and deep hollows, including the Moresville Range and Irish Mountain, which isolate small clusters of highland habitation. Settlements such as West Settlement, More Settlement, and the aptly named Hardscrabble indicate the historical pattern of upland farming and homesteading common to this region.

Genealogists will find interest in the Tyler Cemetery located near the southern border, adjacent to Stratton Falls. The transport network follows the narrow drainages of Town Brook and Batavia Kill, while the Roxbury Runway Airport stands as a more modern landmark on the plateau overlooking Montgomery Hollow. The map provides a clear record of family-named roads and remote mountain features that persist into the twenty-first century.
