1893 Map of Belchertown

USGS Topo · Published 1940

About this map

The Swift River valley is documented here as it appeared in the late 19th century, centering on a network of towns and river-fed industry before the landscape was fundamentally altered. This survey captures the intricate topography of Hampshire Co and Worcester Co, where the Boston & Albany R. R. follows the river through Enfield and Greenwich. The map reveals a dense arrangement of rural post offices and centers such as Greenwich Village, Smiths, and Millington that served the local agricultural and milling economy.
