1889 Map of Framingham

Social and civic institutions of the late nineteenth century are documented through markers such as the State Prison near the Concord boundary and the noted Wayside Inn. The map also captures the layout of established villages like Saxonville, Cochituate, and Natick before suburban expansion altered their traditional nineteenth-century footprints. Family-named hills such as Annursnack Hill and Nobscot Hill provide a geographic anchor for genealogists studying the area's ancestral landholdings.
