1944 Map of Mt. Toby

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Mt Toby State Forest dominates the eastern highlands of this mid-century landscape, a period when the University of Massachusetts at Amherst was already a central anchor for the region. The map reveals a valley defined by the winding Connecticut River, which separates the agricultural fields of Bradstreet and North Hatfield from the rising elevations of the Pocumtuck Range. Notable industrial and infrastructure remnants include the Whately Sta along the Boston and Maine Railroad and the Central Vermont Railway corridor passing through Leverett. The presence of the State Fish Hatchery near Sunderland and the Mt Sugarloaf State Reservation reflects a local economy balancing resource management with public recreation. Genealogists will find numerous family-named landmarks and historical burial grounds such as Riverside Cem and East Whately Cem clearly marked.
