About this map

Roxbury and the high peaks of the Moresville Range anchor this 1945 survey of the Catskill Mountains. The landscape is defined by the New York Central railroad corridor, which follows the winding path of the East Branch Delaware River through narrow valleys. This mountain terrain is characterized by numerous family-named hollows and settlements, including the Moffit Settlement and West Settlement, illustrating the scattered agricultural and residential patterns of the mid-20th century. High elevations like Irish Mtn and Schultice Mountain hem in the developed corridors, where local landmarks such as the Township Ch and Tyler Cem provide critical reference points for genealogical research. The map also captures infrastructure such as the Grand Gorge Sta, showing how rail transport linked these remote Delaware County communities to the wider region.
