1969 Map of Barre

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Ware River and its various branches, including the Burnshirt River and the East Branch, carve through this section of Worcester County during a period of transition for local industry and infrastructure. Smaller villages like Williamsville and Coldbrook Springs are depicted alongside the larger centers of Barre and South Barre, where the Penn Central railroad corridors still trace the valley floor. The map highlights a landscape heavily utilized for both conservation and recreation, featuring the Hubbardston State Forest and the Ping Ridge Ski Area. Genealogists will find a high density of rural burial grounds, such as Nightingale Cem, Forest Hill Cem, and Riverside Cem, while the industrial history of the region is grounded by the Barre Falls Dam Gaging Sta and the Gravel Pits north of the Quabbin Regional High Sch.
