1950 Map of Ashburnham

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

The borderlands of Massachusetts and New Hampshire are defined by a complex network of glacial lakes and hills in this 1950 revision of mid-century surveys. Ashburnham serves as the primary hub, where the Boston and Maine RR cuts through the southern terrain near Blackburn Village. The landscape is heavily wooded, dominated by various tracts of State Forest and significant elevations like Mount Watatic and New Ipswich Mountain. Water is the defining feature of the region, ranging from the large Lake Monomonac on the western edge to the paired basins of Upper Naukeag Lake and Lower Naukeag Lake. Smaller settlements and institutional landmarks, including Converseville, Lane Village, and the Hampshire Country Sch, indicate a rural pattern of life centered around the local ponds and the upper reaches of the Millers River. Genealogy researchers can also locate the St Dennis Cem and several numbered schoolhouses like School No 8.
