New York: Neversink

N 41° 49.825' W 89° 14.994'

The origins and meaning of the name Neversink are uncertain — the Sullivan County town has moved several times since its 1798 beginnings. Some research indicates that the moniker comes from the Native American name Mahackamack. What is certain is that the original hamlet of Neversink is currently — and quite ironically — under water. It was one of the Catskill Mountain towns that was flooded to create reservoirs for the New York City water supply system. Located in the Catskills, today the city is home to about 3,500 people.
