1944 Map of Grafton

About this map

Grafton State Hospital and the adjacent Grafton Airport occupy the northern landscape of this mid-1940s survey, illustrating a period of institutional expansion and early aviation development in Worcester County. The Blackstone River serves as the industrial and social spine of the region, its course punctuated by mill ponds and specialized settlements like Fisherville, Saundersville, and Farnumsville. This valley network is closely mirrored by the New York New Haven and Hartford RR, which facilitated the movement of goods between these production centers.
