1929 Map of Averill

About this map

The Connecticut River serves as the primary artery of the Vermont and New Hampshire border, defining the eastern boundary of this 1920s landscape. Logging and water management dominate the interior highlands, evidenced by a dense network of numbered camps and timber-related structures like Buzzell Dam, Peanut Dam, and Stone Dam. Small settlements such as Beecher Falls and Canaan anchor the northern reaches near the international boundary, while the Maine Central RR tracks the river valley toward North Stratford. The terrain shifts from the prominent height of Monadnock Mountain to the low-lying Yellow Bogs, illustrating the transition from active timber harvesting sites to the marshy headwaters of the Nulhegan River. The presence of numerous rural schools, such as Wallace Pond Sch and Columbia Valley Sch, points to a scattered but established community reliant on the local forest and river economies.
