About this map

Stonehill College sits at the heart of this landscape, surrounded by a dense network of historical settlements and family burial grounds. The area is defined by its transition from the urban center of Brockton to the outlying corners of South Easton, North Easton, and West Bridgewater. Genealogists will find a high density of named cemeteries, including the Old Burying Ground Cem, George Fergusson Burying Ground Cem, and the Elijah Copeland Graveyard.

Water systems like the Salisbury Plain River and Coweeset Brook drain toward the massive Hockomock Swamp to the south. The map reflects a long history of rail and industry, evidenced by Easton Station and Stoughton Junction. From the residential blocks of Campello and Montello to the preserved lands along the Bay Circuit Trl, the map documents a region where colonial-era landmarks and modern infrastructure coexist.
