About this map

Roxbury serves as the central hub of this Catskill mountain landscape, where the East Branch Delaware River winds through the valley floor. The settlement pattern follows the drainage of the river and its many tributaries, including Pleasant Valley Brook and Batavia Kill. Significant local history and genealogy markers are evident in the numerous burial sites scattered across the township, such as Roxbury Cem, Yellow Church Cem, and Tyler Cem near the cascading Stratton Falls.

Upland areas are defined by the high elevations of the Moresville Range and peaks like Irish Mtn and White Man Mtn. Smaller hamlets and named locales including Vega, Hubbell Corners, and West Settlement show the persistence of localized communities in the steep terrain. Modern infrastructure like the Roxbury Runway and the United Methodist Church sit alongside older family-named roads, providing a detailed view of Delaware County's geographic and social structure.
