About this map

Great Pond and Powwow Pond sit at the heart of this Rockingham County landscape, where the town of Kingston serves as a central hub. The map reveals a dense network of water bodies and wetlands, from Spruce Swamp in the north to the sprawling Country Pond on the southern edge. The hydrological pattern of the Powwow River and Exeter River dictates the historical development of settlements like East Kingston, West Kingston, and Brentwood.

Genealogists and local historians will find numerous burial grounds scattered throughout the area, including Soldiers Cem, Ye Old Cem, and the Brentwood Cem. Elevated terrain features such as Rock-Rimmon Hill and Philbrick Hill rise above the low-lying basins. The inclusion of Winterwood Airport and small clusters like Marshall Corner and Rowes Corner provides a look at the early 21st-century footprint of these historic New England townships.
