1948 Map of Clayville
USGS Topo · Published 1949About this map
Barden Reservoir and the northern reaches of the Scituate Reservoir dominate this western Rhode Island landscape, reflecting the mid-century hydrological engineering of the Providence area. The map illustrates a rural network of small settlements such as Clayville and Rockland, connected by major thoroughfares like the Danielson Pike and Plainfield Pike. Genealogists will find a high concentration of family-named landmarks and burial grounds, including the Hopkins Mills Cem and Windsor Cem, providing a clear record of local lineage and early upland settlement patterns. The terrain is characterized by a series of prominent rises like Chopmist Hill and Pray Hill, interspersed with water bodies such as Ponaganset Pond and Stone Dam Pond. This 1940s survey captures the area just as it transitioned into its modern role as a protected watershed district for the state.
