1936 Map of Monadnock

About this map

Monadnock Mtn dominates this Southwest New Hampshire landscape, serving as a central hub for a network of hiking trails and landmarks like the Halfway House and the Fire Lookout. The 1930s survey reveals a region defined by its numerous glacial water bodies, from Nubanusit Lake in the north to the Contoocook River drainage in the south. The economic life of the era is visible through the presence of a Quarry near Troy and the vital corridor of the Boston and Maine RR, which links settlements such as Fitzwilliam Depot and East Jaffrey. Local community life is anchored by institutions like Roxbury Center and several numbered schoolhouses. The map also documents the early recreational development of the area, featuring the Fitchburg Boy Scout Camp and established routes like State Highway No 101.
