1892 Map of Granby

USGS Topo · Published 1899

About this map

The Farmington River and its multiple railroad corridors define the industrial and social geography of late 19th-century Hartford County. This survey reveals a landscape of concentrated river-valley manufacturing centers like Collinsville and Unionville, contrasted with the dramatic terrain of the Barnndoor Hills and the curiously named Satan's Kingdom. The transportation network is particularly dense, showing the New York New Haven and Hartford Railroad Northampton Division threading through Simsbury and Avon, while the Central New England and Western Railroad traverses the central ridges.
