The OP said "supposedly ten minutes from Kerhonkson and near Ellenville" not in Ellenville. My query was for more than the general geographic location.

When I put "Diamond City, NY" in NETR Historic Aerials, the hamlet of Bouckville NY comes up. At the crossroads of Crow Hill Road and Forward Road. I'm not sure if that means anything, but Historic Aerials is my go-to page when I need to find a really obscure hamlet / village that is no longer on any map. So, maybe there is something to it.

Like this, for example:

I'm guessing its a pre- WWII town name...

Default Dymond City

First of all it us spelled Dymond, NOT diamond. I should know, I grew up in Dymond City. I lived there until I was 25. No there is not an old man in a rocking chair sitting in the middle of the road, no there was not a state trooper buried in his car, the "if you don't go in, you don't cone out" is a bunch of b.s..............unless you are an a$$hole, or scumbag that starts crap with my family, you will be just fine. Oh, and for the people that are on here claiming to live there, and say all this crap is true, is just some retard running their mouth. Go to bing maps and look up Dymond road grahamsville N.Y. 12740. It is a 1 mile dead end road.

you people really need to grow up. first of all the spelling in incorrect. the correct spelling is Dymond, and i should know because i am one. there is no one in a chair with a gun and there has never been a cop buried in his car. idiots like you are why these very untrue stories are still going around. and if you really lived around here you would know better. try again jerks, go and bother someone else.

Truth is, it is real 100% real. i would know my family are the ones who built it and one day i hope i take over it but they dont sit in chairs with shot guns or burned cars or anything most story's are not true. Nobody needs to know where it is for my family is vary protect full about that place and everyone in it. I love my family with all there heart and after all those storys they will be liveing legends. You never know what will happen next with them. I Dymond city will live on and on forever and years to come. But dont worry about where it is thats why its in the woods and sticks. So nobody can take it away from us my family live in peace and there happy so please go find someone else's family to bother. But it you were smart you would just leave it alone.

Dymond city is on the other side of the roundout res. Don't believe all the folklore stories that are told.the Symonds are a great bunch of people,and would do anything for you if you were in trouble...they respect their land,as anyone would do! And ellenville may be a depressed area now,but it is only because of today's economy.we take what we get,and try to make it better...we are not all born with the silver spoon in our mouths!

You're all morons! It's Dymond City in Sundown! I grew up only a quarter mile from Dymond Road, and married into "the family". They were just honest, hard working, good ol' boys who liked to hunt and raise a little hell. The stories worked in keeping most idiots out so that their peace wasn't disturbed. Unfortunately some do disturb the peace. A few months ago a green Volkswagen peeled through, middle fingers in the air screaming obscenities, they could have hurt someone. If they did, they would have been sorry.
But hey, we know how to hunt, have guns and a whole big mountain to bury your body! Mwah ha ha!

Now, who knows if this is true - I tried Googling it a number of ways but nothing comes up.

Anyone know any local legend? Is there truth to this?
First of all it's DYMOND city and it's in sundown and yeh if you don't belong there don't go
