1945 Map of Stamford

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Stamford serves as a focal point at the southwestern edge of this survey, positioned where the Delaware River West Branch and Utsayantha Lake meet the steep slopes of Utsayantha Mountain. In the mid-1940s, the landscape is defined by its deep hollows and high ridges, with several kills such as West Kill and Shew Hollow Kill carving through the terrain. The presence of numerous family and community burial grounds, including Choate Cem, Ruliffson Cem, and Champlin Cem, provides a detailed record of the rural population distributed between the northern settlements of Jefferson and South Jefferson. The rail connection is evident at South Gilboa (Station), linking these upland communities to the broader region. Higher elevations are marked by landmarks like the Lookout Tower and Mount Jefferson, while the agricultural and residential patterns concentrate near the spring-fed waters and narrow valleys of the Moresville Range.
