1944 Map of Georgetown

About this map

Dummer Academy anchors the northern landscape near South Byfield in this mid-century look at Essex County. The map captures a transition from traditional village centers like Georgetown and Topsfield to the conserved woodlands of the Georgetown Rowley State Forest. Evidence of long-established agricultural and social structures is found in family-named locations such as Kinsman Corner, Dole Corner, and Leightons Corner, alongside several burial grounds including Harmony Cem and Nursery Cem. The Boston and Maine RR cuts through the terrain, illustrating the rail connections that linked these North Shore communities. Waterways like the Ipswich River and Parker River define the local drainage patterns, while specialized settlements like the Asbury Grove camp meeting ground reflect the unique cultural history of the region.
