2016 Map of West Kill

About this map

West Kill and Halcott Center anchor this 2016 survey of the Catskill Mountains' high-relief landscape. The map details a complex network of hollows, including Johnson Hollow, Stanton Hollow, and Millbrook Hollow, which define the local settlement patterns. Genealogists can find several family-named burial sites such as Schermerhorn Cem and Deyoe Cem, alongside the West Kill Methodist Church Cem. The southern portion of the sheet transitions into the Ulster corridor near Pine Hill and Highmount, following the path of Bushnellsville Creek. High-elevation landmarks like Vly Mtn, Balsam Mtn, and the distinctive Deep Notch passage illustrate the challenging terrain that shaped early transportation routes. Notable local roads like Turk Hollow Rd and Kelly Hill Rd wind through the steep topography, connecting these small mountain communities.
