About this map

The Assabet River and Concord River anchor this 1987 survey of the Middlesex County landscape, illustrating a region where Revolutionary War history meets late 20th-century institutional expansion. Large swaths of the terrain are dedicated to conservation and public memory, notably at Walden Pond State Res and the sprawling Minute Man Nat Hist Park. These preservation efforts sit alongside a heavy military and research presence, including Hanscom Air Force Base and the U S Military Reservation Natick Laboratories.

Suburban growth is evident through the dense networks of schools like Acton-Boxborough Regional High Sch and Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High Sch. The rail infrastructure remains a defining feature, with the Boston and Maine Railroad and Conrail lines serving established hubs like West Concord, Maynard, and South Acton. Notable local landmarks such as Old Burying Ground and Glenwood Cem provide essential touchpoints for genealogists tracing family histories in these historic Massachusetts townships.
