1944 Map of Marlboro

About this map

The hills of central Connecticut converge at the meeting of Tolland, Hartford, and Middlesex counties, where the Marlboro settlement sits near the banks of Lake Terramuggus. Surveyed in the early 1940s, this landscape is defined by its complex drainage systems, including the Blackledge River and Salmon River, which carved deep valleys through local heights like Birch Mountain and Baker Hill. Small rural schoolhouses such as White Sch and Northwest Sch are scattered throughout the townships of Hebron and Glastonbury, marking the social centers of these upland farming and timber communities.
