About this map

Franklin and the surrounding Norfolk County landscape appear in this mid-century survey as a region defined by industrial centers and rural church crossroads. The New York New Haven and Hartford Railroad cuts a prominent diagonal path through the terrain, anchoring the development of Franklin and Woonsocket. Educational and religious institutions are significant landmarks, including Dean Academy, the St Marys Ch, and the secluded Mt St Marys Convent near the southern border.
