1953 Map of Hampton

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Nathaniel Lyon Memorial Park and the sprawling Natchaug State Forest dominate this landscape in eastern Connecticut, where the winding Natchaug River and Little River cut through a terrain marked by numerous family-named hills and glacial basins. The map illustrates the region's mid-century rural character, anchored by the village of Hampton and smaller settlements like Slovik and Elliotts. Infrastructure of the era is clearly visible, including the New York New Haven and Hartford rail line passing through the Hampton Sta. This survey, revised in the early 1950s from 1943 data, captures a quiet moment before modern suburbanization, preserving the location of local landmarks like the Elliotts Sch and Litchfield Cem, alongside historical thoroughfares such as the Kings Highway and the Grand Army of the Republic Highway.
