About this map

The town of Summit and its namesake Summit Lake anchor this 1940s survey of the Catskills foothills in Schoharie County. The landscape is defined by its series of high hollows and upland ridges, including Beards Hollow, Sawyer Hollow, and Wharton Hollow. While small settlements like Richmondville and Eminence provide focal points, the map reveals a rural social structure dominated by a decentralized network of numbered district schools. Ten separate schoolhouses are located here, ranging from School No 2 near the village to the remote School No 11 further south.
