2013 Map of Summit

About this map

Summit sits as the central hub of this Schoharie County landscape, where the waters of Summit Lake and Bear Gulch Pond drain into the surrounding valleys. The terrain is defined by significant elevations like The Cobble and the deep drainage of Wharton Hollow Cr, which flows toward the hamlet of East Jefferson. This area is particularly rich in genealogical data, preserving the locations of several distinct burial grounds including the Old Summit Cem and New Summit Cem, as well as the Old Eminence Cem and New Eminence Cem further south. The map documents the persistent rural character of these upland settlements, from Beards Hollow in the north to Vorman Corners in the south, linked by a network of winding roads such as Rossman Fly Rd and Fulton Hill Rd.
