1900 Map of Blackstone

USGS Topo · Published 1942

About this map

The Blackstone River serves as the industrial spine of this region, its waters fueling a dense network of mill towns and manufacturing centers at the turn of the century. From the sprawling village of Whitinsville to the rail hubs of Uxbridge and Blackstone, the landscape reflects a late-19th-century economy deeply integrated with water power and the Providence and Worcester R.R.. This survey, conducted primarily in 1886, reveals the intricate layout of numerous mill villages such as Fisherville, Farnumsville, and Saundersville clustered along the riverbanks.
