1959 Map of Bethel

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The New York New Haven and Hartford railroad cuts a vital corridor through Fairfield County on this 1959 revision, connecting the industrial and residential hubs of Bethel, Branchville, and Georgetown. The landscape is a complex mix of protected lands and post-war growth, anchored by Wooster Mountain State Park and Putnam Memorial State Park. These forested ridges, including Moses Mtn and Topstone Mtn, are punctuated by numerous small bodies of water like Waubeeka Lake and Fox Hill Lake, many of which supported summer camps and localized recreation.
