1961 Map of Deep River

About this map

The Connecticut River bisects this river-valley landscape, serving as a primary corridor for the towns of Deep River and East Haddam. The topography is defined by significant elevations such as Mt Parnassus and the Rattlesnake Ledges, overlooking numerous water bodies like Bashan Lake and Chapman Pond. The map illustrates a dense network of early burial grounds and civic institutions, including the Old Cove Burying Ground and Nathan Hale Ray Sch, reflecting the deep colonial roots of Middlesex County.
