1981 Map of Mt. Pawtuckaway

About this map

The Pawtuckaway Mountains dominate the northern landscape of this Rockingham County region, where the town of Raymond serves as a primary hub for the surrounding settlements. This area is defined by its transition from the steep elevations of Mt Pawtuckaway and South Mtn to the low-lying glacial waters of Onway Lake and Governors Lake. The map reveals a land utilized for both recreation and industry, showing the expansion of Pawtuckaway State Park alongside numerous gravel pits and the Fairgrounds in Deerfield. For the genealogist, the sheet is exceptionally detailed, noting several family and community burial grounds including Bartlett Cem, Chase Cem, and Prescott Cem. The network of older routes like the Old Manchester Road and Critchett Road illustrates the historic connection between smaller locales like East Candia and Dumplingtown Hill.
