About this map

The Connecticut River serves as the central artery of this late nineteenth-century survey, flanked by a dense network of industrial and agricultural villages connected by early rail and river crossings. Key transit points like the Enfield Bridge and the Bissell Ferry illustrate how the region negotiated the water before modern spans were ubiquitous. The landscape is characterized by the prominent Peak Mountain to the northwest and a complex system of brooks, including Freshwater Brook and Scitico, that powered local industry at sites like Vintons Mills and Sadds Mills.
