1952 Map of Haddam

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

The Connecticut River anchors this mid-century portrait of Middlesex County, flowing past established riverfront settlements like Haddam and Rock Landing. The interior landscape is defined by the dense tracts of the Cockaponset State Forest, where numerous small water bodies and brooks such as Roast Meat Brook and Bible Rock Brook carve through the hills. This 1952 field-checked survey reveals an area of persistent rural character, with scattered hamlets like Little City and Ponset connected by a network of winding roads including Candlewood Hill Road. Genealogists will find a wealth of local history in the numerous small burial grounds mapped here, from the Old Rock Landing Cem near the river to the Little City Cem and Lane District Cem in the secluded uplands. Traces of industrial history are visible at Quarry Hill and the series of ponds like Sawmill Pond and Bell Shop Pond, which hint at earlier water-powered manufacturing.
