About this map

Mt Grace stands as the central landmark of this upland terrain, overlooking a network of small settlements and brooks that define the Massachusetts and New Hampshire borderlands. The village of Warwick serves as a hub, surrounded by family-named hills like Whipple Hill, Ball Hill, and Flower Hill. This landscape is particularly rich for those researching local lineage, as it contains several distinct burial grounds including Warwick Cem, Perry Cem, and Barus Cem.

Water systems, including Richards Reservoir and Hastings Pond, emphasize the region's historic reliance on local catchment, while the presence of Richards Mill Pond suggests early industrial activity along the streams. The map also traces the New England National Scenic Trail as it winds through the forest, connecting landmarks such as Bennetts Knob and Sunny Valley. Smaller hamlets like Baptist Corners, Blissville, and North Orange dot the southeastern portion, illustrating the dispersed settlement patterns typical of this rural New England frontier.
