1964 Map of Belchertown

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The hills and lowlands of eastern Hampshire County are defined by a complex network of brooks and ridges as they appeared in the mid-1960s. The settlement of Belchertown serves as a focal point, surrounded by significant institutional and conservation lands including the Belchertown State School and the Belchertown State Reservation. To the west, the Holyoke Range rises toward Long Mtn, while the eastern boundary is dominated by the Quabbin Reservoir and its protected Quabbin Reservation. The map details the local infrastructure of the era, from the winding tracks of the Central Vermont and Boston and Maine railroads to the St Hyacinths Seminary and College. Several small cemeteries such as Lake Vale Cem and Munsell Cem are located throughout the landscape, providing valuable locations for genealogical research and local history.
