Hancock New York – Gateway to the Upper Delaware river and where the “Delaware Scenic Byway” (NY Route 97) begins. It’s a community on the move toward a new and wonderful future.
In this Blog – I hope to serve as a spark that will get people communicating about the gifts of living in Hancock and the surrounding area (Delaware County NY).
To start off the conversation – Hancock is located where the head waters of the East and West branches of the Delaware River meet to form the full body of the river. They merge in a unique way creating an Island Mountain called Point Mountain. The Indian name for Hancock is Chehocton meaning “The wedding of the waters”
