1928 Map of Glastonbury

USGS Topo · Published 1928

About this map

The Connecticut River forms the western boundary of this landscape, its banks defining the early settlement patterns of Hartford County in the late 1920s. This survey, compiled from aerial photographs by the Air Corps, reveals a transitional environment where established villages like Glastonbury and Naubuc serve as anchors between the river and the rising elevations to the east. The terrain transitions from the low-lying valley floors near Pewterpot Brook to the prominent heights of Minnechaug Mtn and Meshomasic Mtn. Numerous smaller hamlets, including Addison, Buckingham, and Hopewell, are shown situated along the drainages of Salmon Brook and Roaring Brook. The map captures the distinct boundary between Hartford and Middlesex Counties, providing a clear look at the agricultural and residential layout of Glastonbury before modern suburban expansion reshaped the region.
