LIST of PLACE NAMES & TOWNS THEY ARE IN
This is a little database listing names of communities, settlements, ponds, mountains, etc. and the Town that they are in. If anyone wants to contribute additional data, please send it to me and put "PLACE NAME" in subject line of your email. Note: Since starting this, Al Davidson suggested including 'old names'. Al sent in a few, and I've added several found in French's Gazetteer and from the Common School Dist Info of 1855. You will see an 'x' in some areas of the 'SettlementPlace Name column. If you know the name this 'old name' is now going by, please send it in. Thank you! Joyce Riedinger |

Notes Section:
This has been Hog Hollow so long that a woman with a memory of local history and family genealogy comparable to a history book, who lived at the foot of Hog Hollow about 1919 could not remember positively where the name came from. In recent years it was changed to Park Hill Road. Since the road does not follow the brook some still refer to the brook and valley as Hog Hollow.
It is located on the back side of the East Branch of the Delaware River midway between Downsville and Corbett. The piers of the Colchester Covered Bridge cross the river close by. (Please note the Downsville Covered Bridge which still stands is not the same.)
An additional note: One of Timothy Gregory's first homes was located nearby. --Betty N. Watson - posted here November 18, 2009
Addition note from Betty posted here June 15, 2010:
I have another "old place name". I was reading some genealogy and found "Cooley Hollow." Apparently the name existed in the early 1930's, but not now.
In recent years, Cooley Hollow has been called Hinman Road and the 911 road sign designates it as Cornwall Road. This road turns off Fuller Hill Road about three miles from County Route 17 near Horton.
Wanted to let you know that the former name of Big Pond in Andes was Eel Lake, My family has had property on the lake for years and years. We are still the only private lands on (and under) the lake. I was just perusing the web and stumbled across your site... Thought you might like the update :) --Sean Kearns, January 24, 2005
While I'm sure it's not official, Bryden Lake is referred to as Lake Arax by Camp Nubar, which has operated on that site since 1968. --Eddie Ajamian, December 7, 2004
My dad Robert R. Squire and Ersnt Eicher bought the Finkle Dairy Farm in 1963 and along with several friend built the Andes Ski Area. R B Squire, May 15, 2004
East Meredith actually began as "Brier Street." you might want to add that to the "old name" list. Halina Monroe continued to refer to the town by the old name in all her columns, stories, and correspondence until she died in the early 1980s. Jim Williams, May 3, 2004
In the Gould History, Chap VI near the end- it references Papagonk -now Colchester. In the Rev War Pension file of Silas Bowker, Jr is a letter from his father Silas dated 1785 from Papaconk. He also refers to Papuconk several times in reviewing his service as a scout during the Revolution. I believe it was located beneath what is now a large resevoir. Margaret Thompson, March 25, 2003
from Tamara Sanford, March 27, 2003- From the book I am presently transcribing.. in last chapter submitted Colchester it reads:
TRADITIONAL HISTORY.
Prior to 1766, the date of the first settlement, the Pawpacton valley was the home of the Wappinger Indians, and within the territory that is now the town of Colchester were two Indian villages, Pawpacton and Papagouck, the former located on the flat near the mouth of Cole's Clove, the latter is believed to have been located on the westerly side of the river about two or three miles below Downsville, but it seems the Indians had ceased to make their home in this vicinity before the white settlers came.
The community of Sidney Center was originally spelled Centre until the 1920's when the spelling was changed officially by the post office. On the railroad (O&W) it was called Maywood (as far as we can determine, to differentiate it from Sidney) Phyllis B Place, Maywood Historical Group of Sidney Center, Inc.
I noticed that Basket Pond was on your list. "The Basket" is a whole area which is the watershed from Basket Pond. There are, I think, two streams emanating from it. It encompasses the area know as South Woods, also Goulds, Rock Valley, Hansom Hollow and edges into Peakeville, Acidalia, and Long Eddy. Basket Creek empties into the Delaware just south of Long Eddy under the viaduct. Goulds and Rock Valley were communities in their own right years ago, with Post offices, I believe, and churches, I know. There was also a Grange Hall at Rock Valley. Each also had its own school. My father, George Smith, taught at the Rock Valley School, which my brother attended. My mother taught at the Goulds School. This was in the 30s. Kathryn Smith Mollach, March 15, 2001
Of course, there is no longer a "Beerston" in the Town of Walton because of the Cannonsville Dam. The original settlement was created by Ephriam Beers IV, Joseph Beers and Joseph Cable in 1788. "It was called 'The Den' because it resembled a cage surrounded as it was by mountains on all sides and rampant with an abundance of wild animals. . ." Also, they say it was named after a similar place in Fairfield, CT. Charles E. Beers (son of Ephraim Silas Beers) said in an interview in 1953 when asked why the place was renamed Beerston: "What else could they call it? More than half the population was named Beers!" From The Story of Walton by Helen Lane and Committee, copyright 1975. There was also a "Ben Beers Mountain" in that area which Stephen Decatur Eels wrote a poem about in 1891. This poem was included in a publication (1997) by William John Cable & Mrs. Marian D. Cable of Sidney, NY. Joyce (Beers) Shultis, dir. desc. of Ephraim S., etc., April 11, 2001
