The Miller Map comes from the volume, Documents Relative to the Colonial History of the State of New York Volume 13, and is found between pages 84 and 85. The map was made by an English Anglican priest who visited New York in 1695. He sketched maps of the prominent towns. On his way back to England, he encountered French privateers, and he threw his notes overboard. Miller was captured, and taken back to France. After being paroled from the French, Miller returned to England and recreated the map. This map shows the Stockade area of Kingston as it appeared in 1695 - View Map Enlarged >

This map was made in 1771 by James Clinton, brother of the Revolutionary War Governor of New York State, George Clinton. It shows the entire bounds of the town or corporation of Kingston. On the right hand side would be the edge of Saugerties, and on the left hand side would be Esopus, moving in the direction of New Paltz.The interesting thing about this map is that if you find the "Rondout Kill" you will see a road that is labeled, "Road to Kingston Landing" and that goes to the Village of Kingston, signified by a church. This is the road that the British would have used to march from the Rondout to Uptown Kingston when they burned it in 1777. View Map Enlarged >
