1893 Map of Abington

USGS Topo · Published 1932

About this map

Maritime commerce and industrial rail lines define this late nineteenth-century landscape of Plymouth County and the South Shore. The topography, surveyed by Sumner H. Bodfish, shows the intricate coastline from Quincy Bay to Scituate Harbor, where the Weymouth Fore River and Back River cut deep into the interior. Inland, the distribution of small villages like Assinippi and Beechwood reflects a transition from coastal fishing and trade to inland farming and manufacturing.
