About this map

Industrial mill villages and scattered hill farms define the northern Rhode Island landscape in this tactical survey compiled by the Corps of Engineers. Settlements such as Harrisville, Pascoag, and Slatersville are shown at a time when their textile economies were deeply integrated with the region’s complex water network. The map reveals the extensive reliance on reservoirs like Wilson Reservoir and Pascoag Reservoir to power local industry, while smaller hamlets like Mohegan and Nasonville line the Clear River.
