About this map

Hinsdale sits at the confluence of the Ashuelot River and the Connecticut River in this detailed southwestern New Hampshire survey. The landscape is defined by the heavy woods and summits of the Pisgah Mtn Range, where water bodies like Fullam Pond and Lily Pond are tucked into the high terrain. The map records the cultural footprint of the region through its small villages, including Ashuelot and its eponymous Ashuelot Bridge, as well as the southern settlement of Winchester.

For local historians and genealogists, the map provides precise locations for several burial grounds, including Saint Josephs Cem, Pine Grove Cem, and the Whithed Cem near the river. The presence of Dole Junction and numerous mountain-crossing roads like Old Chesterfield Rd and Old Spofford Rd illustrates the historical transit routes connecting these mill and river towns to the surrounding upland farms and forest preserves.
