About this map

The Ammonoosuc River and its confluence with the Wild Ammonoosuc River define the settlement patterns of this New Hampshire landscape during the late 1960s. The village of Lisbon serves as a primary hub, with the Boston and Maine railroad following the river valley through Sugar Hill Sta and Bath. Local transit and infrastructure are marked by traditional landmarks like the Covered Bridge at Swiftwater and the Gaging Sta near Woodsville Road.

Tracing the foothills of the White Mountain National Forest, the map reveals a network of rural hamlets including Ireland, Savageville, and Pettyboro. Evidence of the area's agricultural and social fabric remains clear through the preservation of sites like Blue Sch, the Center Hill Ch, and multiple family-named burial grounds such as Moulton Hill Cem. The terrain transitions from the river flats of Cole Plain to the heights of Mt Hope and Young Mtn, showing a mix of active land use and timbered slopes.
