1942 Map of West Shokan

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Ashokan Reservoir dominates the eastern landscape, a massive civil engineering feat that reshaped the Catskill region's topography. Based on 1942 aerial photography, this survey captures the rural layout of Ulster County before significant post-war modernization. Small mountain settlements like West Shokan and Samsonville are shown with their local schoolhouses, including the Bushkill Sch and Rochester Sch, which served as cornerstones for these isolated communities.
