2013 Map of Roxbury

About this map

The E Br Delaware River carves a deep valley through the Catskill landscape of Delaware County, anchoring the village of Roxbury. This survey reflects a landscape defined by traditional rural settlements like West Settlement, Grand Gorge, and Vega, while also documenting modern recreation and infrastructure. Significant genealogical data is preserved through numerous family and community burial grounds, including the Decker Cem, Roxbury Village Cem, and the Yellow Church Cem near the Stratton Falls area. The topographic detail highlights the significant relief of the surrounding peaks, such as Irish Mountain and Schultice Mountain, which hem in the narrow hollows. These valleys, including Montgomery Hollow and Moffit Settlement Hollow, maintain the historical road networks and small-scale agriculture that have characterized this portion of New York for generations.
