1938 Map of Mt Tom

USGS Topo · Published 1938

About this map

Mt Tom Range dominates the landscape of this 1930s survey, a prominent basalt ridge that defines the geography between the Connecticut River and the industrial corridors of the Pioneer Valley. The map captures a sophisticated network of water management and recreation during the interwar era, featuring the Ashley Reservoir system and the popular Mountain Park resort area. Significant transportation infrastructure is evident, from the New York New Haven and Hartford RR to the Barnes Landing Field in Westfield. Genealogists will find value in the detailed locations of neighborhood institutions like the St Marys Cemetery, the Monastery in West Springfield, and small community clusters such as Swanson Corners and Cayenne. The map also illustrates the transition from rural land use to suburban development in areas like Highlands and Oakdale.
