About this map

Silver Lake and the Indian Head River define this 1930s landscape of Plymouth County, where the transition from inland agriculture to suburban development is underway. The New York New Haven and Hartford RR provides a critical industrial spine, serving local hubs like Halifax Sta and Silver Lake Hampton Sta. This era shows a community still deeply rooted in its local institutions, evidenced by a high density of rural schools such as Thomas Sch and Smith Sch, alongside significant recreational sites like Mayflower Grove and Camp Wampatuck.
