1967 Map of Marlborough

About this map

The town of Marlborough and the village of Gilead anchor this mid-century portrait of central Connecticut’s woodlots and rising residential growth. Dominating the lower portion of the map is Lake Terramuggus, surrounded by a burgeoning network of local roads including Charman Road and Edstrom Road. The landscape is a mix of public lands and small-scale agriculture, with the extensive Salmon River State Forest and Meshomasic State Forest providing a buffer between the surrounding hills. Genealogists will find several burial sites preserved here, from the Old Marlborough Cem near the town center to the remote Burrows Hill Cem. Education is represented by the Macy Hall Sch and Thienes Sch, while the presence of a Lookout Tower and Radio Towers on John Tom Hill marks the highest points in the local topography.
