I was able to find the route of Draper Rd. in Morris, NY. Most of the road is now abandoned. A good portion of the road is lined with stone walls as shown in the photo below. It also has a telephone line running parallel to it just to the north. The poles are marked NY Telepone Company. I wonder if the right of way for the phone lines initially belonged to the Dimmock Hollow Telephone Company?

Scroll down to see two other maps. Note that the scale on the two maps is different.

Then there's the view from the atlas published by Beers in 1868. I have highlighted Draper Rd. in yellow and typed the name in red. Notice it looks like Dimmock is spelled Demick and Delmick on this map.
