1958 Map of Montville

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Oxoboxo Lake and the surrounding watersheds of New London County anchor this mid-century look at eastern Connecticut's evolving landscape. The map details the transition from rural agricultural roots to more established suburban and industrial patterns, specifically around Montville and Oakdale. A high density of family-named burial grounds like Raymond Hill Cem and Forsythe Cem suggests long-standing deep ancestral ties to the land, while the presence of the Fair Oaks Sch and Waterford Country Sch indicates the growth of local infrastructure. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent hills, including Cochegan Hill and Noble Hill, which separate numerous water bodies such as Lake Konomoc and Stony Brook Reservoir. This particular edition includes 1970 highway revisions, highlighting the modernization of the Salem Turnpike and other regional corridors that began to reshape the connectivity between towns like Chesterfield and Salem.
