2023 Map of Roxbury

About this map

The East Branch Delaware River flows through the heart of this landscape, defining the valley where the village of Roxbury is established. This modern survey illustrates the enduring settlement patterns of Delaware County, where family-named locales like Moffit Settlement and West Settlement sit alongside geographically named hollows. The rugged topography of the Moresville Range and peaks such as White Man Mountain and Cator Roundtop hem in the developed corridors. Cultural history is anchored by the United Methodist Church and the distinctive Yellow Church, while genealogy is supported by the locations of the Roxbury Cem, Decker Cem, and Tyler Cem. Unusual modern features, including the Roxbury Runway, appear near the more traditional rural clusters of Hubbell Corners and Hardscrabble, showing how modern infrastructure integrates with the historic terrain of the Batavia Kill and Town Brook drainages.
