1967 Map of Miles Pond

About this map

Miles Mountain dominates the central landscape of this Vermont-New Hampshire border region, where the Maine Central railroad tracks trace a winding path through the valley. The map documents the rural character of the late 1960s, anchored by small settlements like North Concord, East Concord, and Miles Pond, alongside the smaller crossroads of Ralston Corner and Texas. To the south, the massive Connecticut River Reservoir, also known as Moore Reservoir, defines the boundary between Essex and Grafton counties. Local family history is preserved through labels for the Graves Cem and Overlook Cem, while the rugged topography is broken by numerous water bodies including Shadow Lake and Johnson Pond. The presence of a Sandpit and Gravel Pit near the Moose River indicates the local extraction industry that operated alongside the rail network.
