About this map

The Natchaug State Forest dominates the wooded highlands of central Windham County, marking a landscape defined by significant mid-century forest management and water conservation. The Natchaug River flows through the western reaches, passing near the Nathaniel Lyon Memorial Park and the settlement of Phoenixville. To the east, the New York New Haven and Hartford railroad cuts through the terrain, serving Hampton and the Hampton Sta. This corridor illustrates the region's reliance on rail transport for connecting small rural hamlets like Rawson and Abington. Local landmarks such as the Litchfield Cem and Elliotts Sch provide valuable points of reference for genealogists. The map also captures numerous water features vital to the local ecology and history, including Pine Acres Lake, Hampton Reservoir, and the extensive Cedar Swamp.
