About this map

The industrial and agricultural villages of Norfolk County define this late-nineteenth-century landscape, where a dense network of rail lines once connected the interior to Boston and Providence. Extensive manufacturing hamlets like City Mills and Mechanicsville are shown alongside the early commercial centers of Franklin and Holliston. The map highlights a complex hydrography essential to early industry, featuring the Neponset Reservoir and numerous mill-feeding waters such as Whitney and Winthrop Pond.
