About this map

The Charles River winds through this late 19th-century landscape of Norfolk County, serving as a focal point for industrial settlements like City Mills and Rockville. The region is defined by a dense network of nineteenth-century rail infrastructure, including the New York and New England R.R. and several specialized lines such as the Franklin Branch and Milford Branch. These rail corridors connected established centers like Franklin, Medway, and Wrentham, facilitating the movement of goods and people across the Massachusetts Rhode Island border.
