1956 Map of Dover West

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The University of New Hampshire anchors the southern landscape of this 1950s survey, where the collegiate grounds meet the winding Oyster River. To the east, the industrial and residential core of Dover is clearly defined by its schools and churches, including the Sawyer Sch and St Joseph Sch, while the Spaulding Turnpike carves a modern path through the rural terrain of Madbury and Barrington. This era shows a community in transition, with established family names appearing on cemeteries such as Demerritt Cem and Layne Cem amidst the growing suburban infrastructure of the Somersworth city boundary.
